    I have several disabled friends. I think I’ll share the meme with none of them because this kind of toxic positivity is dismissive of their experience.

    Is this the part where I toss away my cane and do a jig like Grandpa Joe in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?

    I wish…

    Where i live the sidewalk isn’t even wheelchair accessible. We rarely consider the lives of different people when designing infrastructure.

    GTFOH with this ableist bullshit.

    The only bad attitudes that contribute to disability are those of abled people condescending to and excluding us with this kind of toxic self-soothing nonsense you like feeding yourself, because you know society treats us like shit, and are just looking to make yourself feel better about it.

    try educating yourself (E: my bad, you’ll definitely need to get to grips with this part first) instead of spreading this bigoted garbage.
