next you will call me a russian bot, you seem to be so fond of the liberal rhetoric. you can't claim to be championing a cause for society's lowest while participating in hegemonic behavior that directly causes their continued exclusion from all parts of life, unless it is not a part of your itinerary to begin with. engels called this social murder, and it's what you do when you excuse this behavior. you hold contradictory ideas about covid risk, disability and working class organization and you do not want to reckon with them. does mao not tell us to ruthlessly criticize and correct incorrect behavior in our cadre? I see a whole lot of it in my time organizing in real life and am subject to plenty of bleating with similar tone to yours online. covid action (or inaction, as it were) is a working class matter, and it is a dire mistake to think and act otherwise, fundamental even. these are simple questions. why don't you answer them?
It isn’t bait. I believe her point is that it’s easy for communists to claim to be against eugenics and ableism, but in practice many of us are failing to live up to our claims. The Covid pandemic and masking is brought up because it is a major example of this. It is an enormous threat particularly to disabled people, and yet in practice most of the left is, by virtue of their actions, siding with the ableists and the eugenicists. DeadlyBunny was revealing this as well, it’s all well and good if we say we are against ableism, but if we are using ableist language, then it shows a lack of solidarity that puts off the disabled people we should be working with. If we talk the talk, we gotta walk the walk, you know?
And sure, maybe they should have reported those comments, but I mean, any of us could have and apparently none of us did. And rather than accept their accurate criticism of our behavior and reflect, they were spammed with downvotes and their criticisms were deflected. What does that say to our would-be disabled comrades? From my view, it says “shut up and get in line.” Who would stand side by side with people like that?
You are in the modlog for equating mental illness with terrorism. A comment you made after what happened here in this thread. Proving the point of deadlybunny. It's obvious you made those comments precisely to trivialize mental illness and in defiance (a form of baiting) of what the user said.
Do you really want to start this argument again. You are purposefully baiting. Why?
