Just seen a reddit thread where people were saying the disabled should be forcibly taken from our homes and put in concentration camps or institutionalised. Why? To save money. It would be cheaper to cram 10,000 disabled people together in one area than allow 10,000 individual homes to be used. Apparently this would be a “win-win for everyone,” and it’s unfair to allow the wages of workers to be used to support disabled people in their own homes.
Then there is the endless refrain of how disability benefits should be cut to much lower levels, even though they’re barely enough to survive on as it is. Workers complaining that their wages aren’t enough to live on, and so it’s only fair that disabled people get much less. If that amount isn’t enough for you to live on then how is it enough for a disabled person to live on? It’s not like disabled people have cheaper living expenses, actually studies show it’s more expensive to live as a disabled person.
Being told that us receiving medical treatment is a waste of NHS resources, and that disability is mind over matter, if we tried harder we could work just the same as everyone else.
Considering how nazified the world is getting it won’t be long before we’re being rounded up and herded to our deaths.

1 - Read the room. 2 - From experience, real people often do have these takes, they just don’t say them out loud. If they do, they go about it in their usual “enlightened” tongue.

No way this mf said this on a thread about disability on a Marxist server! Go back to your lib instance.

Okay, this instance was created to escape the bigoted libs like you anyways.
Again, my statement about being stricter against libs stands.
I’ve actually had just as much, if not more, of this in real life.
Kinda refutes your own claim that most people aren’t ableist while telling a disabled person to get out more often, something disabled people tend to struggle with due to their, y’know, disabilities.
