@LottieVixen I don't like to use it for myself but many others do, so it is good to know where it comes from. @woozle @noelle @Elizafox
@maunzikation but how? I can't deal with things...
maybe you just need to send me some rainbow icecream from time to time :D
@maunzikation Oh no and I just decided to stay a fairy
I think that one reason (not the only one, but one) for people using ableist terms and metaphors here is the "im mentally ill or otherwise neurodivergent myself, so I can't be ableist / my ableism doesn't count" mindset.
Which isn't true. Trans people can perpetuate anti-trans bigotry and harm each other. Women can say sexist things and harm each other. Plus, no one can speak for a whole group.
We all have internalised lots of oppressive bullshit, and purity is impossible, but responsibility is not.
I would really like to retreat to this nice and cozy Mastodon world but the #ableist language on here is just bad. Really bad and I don't see any discussion about this shit.
Would you please just stop hurting people like that thank you.
If an indie dev can just add accessibility based on a random offhand comment, what excuse do big studios have?

Awww yes, I KNEW here on wonderful Mastodon there were probably even people who… open up their e-readers and do stuff with them 😻
So, I really enjoyed reading this

@necrosis Ich hab desktop-pdf reader deshalb aufgegeben :/
Mach meinen Kram nur noch mit Android (ezPDF Reader), das geht soweit.
@necrosis Hi ^^
@maunzikation Ja, es kann ja freiwillige Umfragen / Angaben etc geben. Nur sollte das nicht staatlich erfasst und zugeordnet werden. Menschen haben immernoch (möglicherweise) Geschlechter und das kann schon wichtig sein und so.
