being homebound is not a privilege. being too disabled to work is not a privilege. being too disabled to cook is not a privilege. being forced to pay a crip tax in order to survive is not a privilege.
“the laptop and zoom class”
disabled people. you mean disabled people. you are talking explicitly about disabled people who either can’t work at all or have serious limitations on their ability to work. you are attempting to frame disability as a luxury.
*stares in semi-verbal autistic*
allow me to clearly communicate something to you: your experiences are not the be-all-end-all of autism and you do not get deny the experiences of other autistics just because you don’t share them & think it’s icky to be associated with them
look i’m not thrilled about dax’s involvement either but mox kissing dudes is objectively better than him not kissing dudes, he’s allowed to have bad taste in men sometimes
i will never stop losing my mind over the fact that kenneth had tights made out of the fabric that had once barely covered his ex’s naked body in a nude photoshoot they did together & mourned them when they tore
that is not a problem with either bdsm or polyamory any more than abusers misusing therapy language is a problem with therapy. shitty people can & will twist anything to help them get what they want, they are the problem not the things they’re twisting.
the only problem with BDSM and polyamory is the vocabulary generated from it has provided an enormous arsenal for fuckboys
“yeah please don’t kinkshame me but i’m kinda into not using a condom? i just loooove the subversive *risk* and thrill of it!!”
Notable: The only reason this is notable is that China doesn’t have the political power within ISU that the US & Russia do. As many others have pointed out, Lorrie Parker’s bias favoring American skaters in the Men’s event in PC was far more egregious than Huang Feng.
Notable: China's Huang Feng is on the technical panel here for figure skating -- part of the judging infrastructure.
In 2018, he was suspended for one year for showing bias in favor of Chinese skaters and inflating their scores at the Pyeongchang Games.

i’ll see that & raise you “wanting a cure for your debilitating disease that has a quality of life comparable to late-stage cancer is ableist”, which i’ve probably had at least five people say to me directly 🙃
“too heterosexual” he was actively homophobic & you’re vilifying queer people for criticizing that? what the hell does “too heterosexual” mean? “homophobic” is the word you’re looking for. “misogynistic” is another good word there.
framing disabled people who are forced to rely on delivery services as automatically more privileged than disabled people who are delivery drivers is absolutely rancid. those groups aren’t even mutually exclusive.
being forced to pay extra for things like doordash just to survive because we can’t go get it ourselves and pay less is a direct result of the oppression & neglect we face because we’re disabled. that isn’t privilege, it’s a consequence of oppression.
food is one of the most basic essential needs there is. people put off other bills or crowdfund to get food delivered because it’s necessary for their survival. that does NOT mean they are privileged.
✒️ claiming women don’t find hangman attractive might actually be even more out of touch than claiming women don’t find eddie kingston attractive, which is already extremely out of touch
you are explicitly calling homebound disabled people “neurotic agoraphobes”. you are insisting that long covid, which includes covid-triggered ME/CFS is psychosomatic despite decades of documentation for post-viral reactions.
i care that he acts like he’s oppressed as a straight man in the sport despite the homophobia deeply embedded in fs. i care that he calls women “females”. i care that he admitted to actively trying to make the sport seem straighter, and i care that he used *elton john* to do it.
we didn’t, we just also didn’t forget his apology or that he offered refunds out his own pocket once he found out. he absolutely should have been doing background checks & personal approval before agreeing to the booking, but he did take responsibility for it.
bitches be like "I MISS MY WIFE 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭" and they're talking about their favorite character who they haven't seen a picture of in like 3 minutes
if you call a fictional man “she” just bc his rapist cursed him to have feminine breasts & voice despite him continuing to refer to himself as male, you are telling on yourself about how you secretly think of intersex men with gynocomastia & other feminine traits.
this is not a revolutionary politic, it is a capitalist one. capitalism demands that the needs of anyone who is unable to be sufficiently productive be cast aside by any means necessary. capitalism demands that people in the underclasses be valued only to extent they can work.
being able to work & being able to leave your home at least semi-regularly is a major advantage
but i absolutely would not call needing to have a highly exploitive job with little worker protection “privilege”, especially for someone who has a disability that is being worsened.
this is also why i don’t call being able to do delivery gigs a privilege even though anyone who can do that has more freedom & ability to meet their own needs than i do even if they are also disabled.
again, the sea of flags from japan. what can he produce.... lying in fifth place, surely a medal is within his grasp if he skates anywhere near his top form. yuzuru hanyu. the music: hope and legacy.
jesus christ stop asking known bigots to comment on LeDuc. they don’t deserve to be treated like a controversy, they’re a person. just let them skate without actively prompting people like Zhulin to spew hate speech about them
Alexander Zhulin about non-binary figure skater Timothy LeDuc: “He doesn’t know whether he’s a woman or a man. Either a pig, or a fly, or God knows who.”

a 27 who consistently uses proper jump technique is not sending a bad message to skaters for pushing himself to do something new AFTER he’s accomplished literally everything else in the sport. otoh, skaters who use dangerous technique & get rewarded for it absolutely does.
@masqueroarade
I think his obsession with the 4A is sending a bad message to the younger generation and is damaging for his health. If you all weren't so reluctant to criticize his bad decision maybe he wouldn't have made them. >
it is entirely possible for a delivery driver to become homebound, unable to work, and dependent on delivery services as a direct result of being a delivery driver. does that mean they’ve gained privilege by losing their job & freedom of movement & having to pay more crip tax?
begging Male Wrestling Fans™ to understand that if they’re squamish about blood they can just say that instead of doing this weird misogynistic concern trolling
if you are framing disabled people who are forced to rely on delivery services as automatically more privileged than disabled delivery drivers (again, not mutually exclusive), you are saying someone in that situation has gained privilege by losing their ability to work.
the capitalist approach to the ongoing covid pandemic is to pretend it’s over and that covid is only a minor risk as long as you’re vaccinated, in direct contradiction to current science. this requires dismissal of covid-triggered ME/CFS & other forms of long covid.
if aew really wants to bring peace to the fanbase they’ll debut a weekly show called Kenny Omega Wears Jeans And No Shirt, which is about kenny wearing jeans and not wearing a shirt
Hes sopping wet. he’s pathetic. he has the wettest most sad huge eyes. he’s insane. a gust of wind could knock him over. he is a girl. hes a 45 year old man. hes a newly discovered species of water amoeba. I didn’t say his name but he
@popped
into yout head didnt he
a year ago we didn’t know if kota ibushi would ever set foot in a wrestling ring again. a year ago we didnt know if he’d be blacklisted. a year ago we didn’t know if he’d be able to wrestle in an njpw partner promotion.
1 week from today he will wrestle at the biggest show ever
if you’re calling either of those positions privileged you remind me of the people who told me that living with constant abuse was a privilege because at least i wasn’t out on the streets. when you start framing oppression as a privilege, you’ve lost the plot.
a privilege framework can be helpful in many areas but when comparing the material conditions of slightly different overlapping groups of disabled poor people is absolutely not one of them. there’s no way to do that here without calling the consequences of oppression “privilege”
if you can't figure out how a 74 year old serial sexual harassed who's assaulted at least one woman & possibly more making weird comments about young women is completely different from two men agreeing to do a blood drinking spot then there's no hope for you
With the 2022 Winter Olympics coming to China in less than six weeks, I asked US gold medal favorite Nathan Chen about the disturbing Peng Shuai situation: ‘I’ve been so engrossed in my training and my preparation for the upcoming nationals so that’s still where my mind is at.’
mox's backstage comments are sending me 😭 apparently he thinkgs shooter is 14 years old and okada is bullying him even though shooter's the one getting in his face. and i think he's accusing okada of delaying claudio's flight
there is a long history of ME/CFS, regardless of the trigger, being labeled psychosomatic despite evidence to the contrary. this is necessary in order to manufacture consent for systemic & medical neglect, which capitalism necessitates. this is what you are doing.
the holocaust was unique in the extent of industrialization. it was not uniquely evil nor did it happen in a bubble separate from other genocides & atrocities. stop finding ways to call other genocides more acceptable.
i really despise how people, on both the left and the right, seem to completely misunderstand *why* the holocaust was so unique among genocides to make it the worst crime of the 20th century
this is the kind of fan notgaythan attracts but yeah us queers were just being overdramatic delusional fanyus when we said his comments emboldened homophobes & transphobes in the fandom
you are fighting AGAINST worker’s rights by demonizing remote work & framing it as a privilege bestowed to upper classes. we need MORE remote work opportunities, even if covid was wiped out of existence tomorrow.
by opposing disability rights you are opposing worker’s rights.
being a figure skating fan has really made me appreciate when other sports allow players/teams to challenge a call. before i got into fs i assumed every sport had that but some don’t & it’s exactly as bad as it sounds.
If AEW is going to sponsor the Barbie Movie, every wrestler must wear pink!(any shade of pink) or a Barbie themed gear!
Go full camp in your entrance gear
by dismissing the growing body of evidence that contradicts your capitalism-inspired desire in favor of deliberate misinterpretations of evidence that say what you want to hear you are abandoning materialism for idealism. this is also not a revolutionary politic.
arguably it’s also from people criticizing his lack of costumes, but that traces back to his homophobia & femmephobia. it’s also disrespecting the sport itself imo. i don’t care that he’s straight, i care that he sees femininity & being perceived as gay as insulting.
if you don’t know anything about kota ibushi you can just say that. he did basically the similar bike spots multiple times in ddt, he wasn’t being forced into anything & the confines of njpw shouldn’t limit him now that he’s left.
Booker T: I saw Kota Ibushi coming down on a 10-speed bicycle; One of the best Strong Style wrestlers that Japan has ever produced and that's what they had him doing
#AEW
and yeah i can’t always tell which communication difficulties that i have are from autism specifically and which are from things like chronic illness, schizophrenia, etc because that’s how having multiple conditions with overlapping & interacting symptoms works.
@comedyunism
@JuliaFtacek
all of that is horrific but it’s *very* different from the genocide manifesto she wrote about trans women. the calls for violence were against trans women, specifically, and she even mentioned individual trans women by name, telling people to lynch specific women.
you refuse material analysis, and even after your arguments have been throughly refuted you have note corrected yourself & retracted your statement that endangers the lives of disabled people & functions only to support capitalism. this is not a revolutionary politic.
putting aside how ridiculously presumptive this thread is & how it completely twists what fans *actually* say while also ignoring what he himself has said, the mcr comparison is a hilarious choice & actually makes the OPPOSITE argument
Gerard Way witnessed 9/11, MCR was formed as a direct response. The band is still so much more than that. The same goes for Yuzu. If you genuinely think he Represents 3.11 Victims PLEASE just block me. Your deification of a single human being, an actual victim, is horrible.
watch ibushi use fireworks in an aew match someday & all the fake fans who only vaguely know him from from three njpw matches they half watched whine about him being “forced” to do one of the things he’s most known for
but the fact remains that i am autistic and i struggle significantly with communication INCLUDING WITH OTHER AUTISTIC PEOPLE and being autistic is part of the reason for that.
the way some people have been saying “fanyus” throughout this gives me the feeling that they wanna call us a different word that starts with f but know they can’t so they’ll settle for fanyus
