Disabled people BEEN saying this.
You all sacrificed disabled people for the economy only for Billionaires and corporations to force you all into a recession anyways and for you to continue to become disabled and/or drop in the streets.
Y’all won! Congratulations.
this is my last few weeks @behearddc so this holiday fundraiser is really special+important to me.
this fund provides material support to incarcerated/ institutionalized disabled ppl (& loved ones) that no other group provides.

Many never see themselves as the group they believe deserving of eradication they just hear “should disabled people be allowed to have children?” And go “nope”
If you've never stopped sheltering in place/shielding during SARS2, I want to know:
