thread of ableist things normalized on stan twt bc i’m disabled and tired of yall
copypastas like these that have emojis in between so many words. not all screen readers can read emojis and if they do, it sounds really chunky and it’s hard to understand. this also includes the clapping emoji between each word trend
tweets like this. same reason as last, i’ve used the iphone screen reader on them and couldn’t tell what the fuck was going on
note if you want a tweet like the last two you can always type it out, take a screenshot of it, then post the screenshot with alt text/a photo description
JOKING ABOUT AND SEXUALIZING CHARACTERS PROSTHETICS/DISABILITIES !!! i’m looking at you sw twt with all your blind kanan and vibrator hand anakin jokes
examples of jokes i’ve seen are things like “pretend i’m kanan bc i refuse to see it 👨‍🦯👨‍🦯
feeling bad for disabled characters solely bc of their disability or making them out to be a burden to abled bodied characters
making fun of the way someone talks/pronounces things. yes this includes making fun people who have done problematic things. bully them over their problematic actions not over something they can’t control.
the use of ableist language. i don’t care if you don’t like the person stop using us as an insult (crazy, deranged, insane, etc)

here’s a article i really like explaining how normalized these words are and what you can say instead https://twtext.com/article/1313638534830419968
infantilizing disabled characters/creators and treating them as “inspiring” bc of their disability
only including nd people in your disability activism/acting like nd people are the only disabled people online

(i’m autistic and physically disabled and the amount of times i’ve seen physically disabled ppl left out with our issues ignored is not okay)
NOT HOLDING YOUR FAVS ACCOUNTABLE WHEN IT COMES TO ABLEISM it’s exhausting so many of y’all are so quick defend your comfort creators when they make ableist jokes or say the r slur 🚶
will add more as i think of them (disabled ppl feel free to suggest more!!)

muting this now bc ableds found it but dm or send to my cc if you want me to add anything :))
THISSS especially without a tw. it’s a common seizure trigger but also if you have weird health stuff like me they can trigger extreme migraines
also just a fyi to the disabled people here triggered by ableism please do not check qrts and hidden replies. i wish i could completely delete them but i can’t so heads up :/
!!!
to clear up some things about my ableist language reply because i’m getting a tonnnnn of hate on that one. i did not equate it to the r slur, yes it can still hurt people, i encourage you to do more research on the subject.

i linked another good article in this cc :) https://twitter.com/lesbianchelli/status/1361362870580113411
