@TommyLoce@benfowlkesMMA Many family’s and sailors have expressed their concerns already about the conditions aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln, just because you don’t respect them enough to care does not mean others and they themselves do not
@B_Barlow96@ebelee_ Brother have you ever done renovation in anybody’s house? The rule of thumb is leave it how ya left it other than the work ya did. Only shitty cheap ass contractors act like that, if you aren’t paying attention to everything you aren’t paying attention to anything.
@subdomaim@zeketrontay@AgeProofCoach@l0velyay@LateefSaka I have also been assuming which was wrong, still unsure wether BAFTA reached out to them personally but it appears public outcry should be more on BBC for this publicity scandal, they even informed John beforehand that any tics would be bleeped which some were but not the slur
The plot thickens re Tourette’s-Gate.
So BAFTA told the BBC ahead of the show airing to cut the slur but they broadcast it anyway
I told you yesterday that this shit stinks
@subdomaim@zeketrontay@AgeProofCoach@l0velyay@LateefSaka And their lack of publicly airing the announcements made to the crowd informing of John’s Tourette’s before the show,their refusal to address Micheal,Delroy and others, and apologize for their handing of this. The movie he was promoting was supposed to spread awareness not hate
@subdomaim@zeketrontay@AgeProofCoach@l0velyay@LateefSaka He has issued two public acknowledgments and reached out to Micheal,Delroy,Hannah, and the rest of Sinner’s staff to apologize personally, like I said it was and is not right to assume how it was handled privately. There should be public calling for a formal apology from BAFTA
@subdomaim@zeketrontay@AgeProofCoach@l0velyay@LateefSaka The racists that have come to the light online to take advantage of this is indeed awful, but these are hateful people and usually ableist themselves just evil enough to try and find any excuse to spread their hatred, but they are not representatives of the disabled community man
@Angelic_Elaina@LateefSaka Equating two entirely different disabilities like that shows you should really try and educate yourself some from the community for the sake of the children you teach
@subdomaim@zeketrontay@AgeProofCoach@l0velyay@LateefSaka Just to defend the lady I quoted, she never said “blacks are more disabled” but that black people with disabilities not only deal with ableism but also racism and they are often treated worse than white people with the same disabilities because of racism
@Invane_@Aqua_or_Bob On how it was handled privately with any of those that had to be subject to it in person or their feelings on it, because that is not my right nor yours but only theirs. All I can talk about is what I have learned from those who suffer from it.
@LateefSaka a black woman with tourettes talked about the situation and I wish people would take the time to listen to what she has to say and educate themselves
@Invane_@Aqua_or_Bob If you want to protect the black community some of the most at risk have tourettes, there are also many black people with tourettes who have already addressed this situation and I would be happy to link the videos if you are interested in what they have to say about it
People treat disabilities like a “white people issue”, meanwhile Black & brown ppl have worse outcomes than their white counterparts. You cannot advocate for a hostile world for white disabled ppl & think you’re creating a worthwhile world for disabled POC. It’s ass backwards.
@VirgilHilts01@nycpa Sadly disability awareness is very poor in many ways here and tourettes especially is one the US overall has very little knowledge of and less care for, I was aware of tourettes before but found out about john and his new movie 2 weeks ago and hope its release in the US helps
