That post said "able bodied allies of disabled people." That is clearly posing "disabled" as the opposite of "able-bodied," which implies anybody who isn't physically disabled isn't disabled at all. And this notion is extremely common in the disabled community. People without physical disabilities are constantly excluded and deemed not "disabled" enough, not having an "actual" disability," not having a disability that comes with "true" hardship. I am forced to see this bullshit exclusionism every single day. I am forced to see the disabled community constantly pretend that "disabled" means only "physically disabled." Why is it never the other way around? Why does nobody ever say "disabled" to mean only people with mental illnesses? If this wording doesn't matter, then shouldn't I also constantly be seeing people do the same to physically disabled people?

Even the founder of cripplepunk peddled this shit and was openly sanist against mentally disabled people. "Can physically disabled people talk about anything" is a hilarious thing to say when almost every single post about disabilities is about only physically disabled people, while mentally disabled people continue to be excluded from the community and treated like shit. So you can get off your fucking high horse. Maybe you should actually give a shit about the people you constantly use as a throne. You're no different than the gay people who exclude bisexuals and pansexuals. You're no different than the trans women who exclude trans men. You're no different than a terf or radical feminist who cannot stand not being at the very top of the oppression hierarchy that assholes like you have created. How dare anybody have a problem with being treated like shit by you, huh?

when I was discovering we were plural we thought we were endogenic and seeing all of these posts back then would have been incredibly similar to the transphobic harassment we came across when we came out as trans

idk

I guess I just think that you don't have the right to question and challenge somebody about their plurality if you're not in their head

Totally!
