#like the one notable time i can think of abled leftists ever coming thru for us was

IIRC "nothing about us without us" was supposed to mean "able-bodied/healthy people stop pretending we don't exist, include us in the conversation about how to improve the world, and especially listen to us when we tell you how inaccessible the world is now and in your plans for the future, and here's what we need to make sure everyone can participate in a better society."

But ableds have their own chronic issues, and it's called "incapable of pulling their heads out of their asses and realize there is more to the human experience than their own personal body" and so the various disabled communities have to become more and more radicalized just to make sure we're not killed by apathy/contempt at best and actual life-threatening malice more often than not.

I said it last night on that other post: abled leftists are just as eugenicists as capitalists and the right as a whole. You just don't care enough about disabled people to put us and our needs and especially our safety in consideration of the Revolution and the supposed Utopia that comes after, and we're actively terrified of you and incredibly pissed off as well
