i-think-that I think that it's good to demand that a nation's leader is capable of basic recall, cognition, and speech.

What are you, a tankie?

If your disability actually impairs your ability to fulfill a responsibility, it's not ableist to say you shouldn't be given that responsibility.

It wouldn't be ableist of me to say a blind person should be made a bus driver.

Ukrainian flag. Opinion disregarded.

[-] Wakmrow@hexbear.net 9 points 3 months ago

This is a very Twitter famous lib lol

[-] HauntedBySpectacle@hexbear.net 36 points 3 months ago

Since when is y'all and nothing else AAVE? How do you think they addressed the crowd at Klan rallies?

[-] nat_turner_overdrive@hexbear.net 34 points 3 months ago

Yeah this is Twitter brained, y'all is a part of many southern dialects it's not exclusively AAVE

[-] Yor@hexbear.net 23 points 3 months ago

Apparently this lady is from Texas, so it's not an affectation

[-] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 14 points 3 months ago

all behaviors from white texans are affectations. the boots, the hats, the drawls. they are a deceptive and false-hearted subspecies of biped attempting to pass as human through exaggerated mimicry.

they are not to be trusted.

Ableism is when knowing when to take the keys away from grandma.

I know this is a bit but holy shit imagining libs co opting Deleuze is hilarious. Would love to see some real schizo posting

[-] CupcakeOfSpice@hexbear.net 8 points 3 months ago

Real schizo here, and as much as I like to believe someone on the schizophrenia spectrum can do anything, I don't think discarding rationality and reality are the best idea. I want to say someone with this condition could be president, but honestly unless they are in a very good state (well-medicated, good therapy, and possibly a bit of luck too) I don't think they would be best suited for that job. Which isn't to say there aren't ableism and sanism issues in our country, but I don't think that's what's happening here.

It's true, I'd be fine if it was a hip young Hitler advocating for genocide.

[-] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 3 months ago

Silly us not wanting the nuclear arsenal of the US under the control of another man who doesn't know what's going on around him or a massive con man.

Yeah the ones being critical of heads of state mental function are the problems...

[-] Spongebobsquarejuche@hexbear.net 10 points 3 months ago

Define 'enormously successful'.

Ask this motherfucker what they think about ABA for autistic children, since they're so concerned about ableism interviewer likely a funny answer

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
