As a disabled person, I face ableism and ableist language every day. Some people use ableist language without even knowing that it is ableist. I thought it would be good for folks to take a look at the attached BBC article and expand their perspectives a bit.

Sorry for the trolling.

Yes, it's tainted, but this article was good and written by somebody who knows what they are talking about.

Many platforms have the full spectrum of good and bad content. We should continue to speak up about the bad ones, but if we cancel all the platforms we'll not be able to reach a lot of people.

It's a personal decision. Plenty of siblings still fight the good fight on Xitter :p
