Top Tweets for #VerifyDisabledTwitter
@ludawinthesky This is exactly my thought - who TF is this knob and why does @premiumbusiness give him a blue check- but disabled content creators and disabled people literally making history are denied access to this? #VerifyDisabledTwitter
Anyhow @premiumbusiness, maybe take a look at a teeny sample of my activism & advocacy resume.

I'd like to introduce myself to the strangers of Twitter.
In 2013, I was diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis, now called Axial Spondyloarthritis. It's an inflammatory rheumatic disease that happened to have killed my dad, seen here.

Hey @premiumbusiness: do appearances on @npratc, @KHNews, @CalHealthline, @CNN, @guardian, @latimes, @NewsHour, covers of magazines & NYFW; reporting back from/speaking at conferences, etc etc qualify me for verification?
Twitter: "Absolutely not."
#VerifyDisabledTwitter
Thank you, this is what I have been trying to convey. Twitter will not let the disability community have a seat at their table. #VerifyDisabledTwitter
I've reached out to Twitter regarding this article with NO response. 100+ disability advocates/activists unable to apply for verification b/c they have to acquire 100K+ followers. This is why I will be leaving Twitter on 3/14/22.๐ #VerifyDisabledTwitter

@morethanmySLE @nowthisnews #verifydisabledtwitter We love, respect and have come to depend on your voice for us!! Being disabled myself, I'm disgusted with the blatant disregard, disrespect and discrimination we get on a daily basis. We love you!!! โค๏ธ๐๐
@loveis716 @nowthisnews I love & appreciate you too, but it's up to @Twitter @premiumbusiness to do right by these disability advocates and activists. #VerifyDisabledTwitter

@dolfin513 @nowthisnews It's up to Twitter to do right by the disability advocates and activists in this article. #VerifyDisabledTwitter

Dear @premiumbusiness
This article contains a list of over 100 disabled Twitter activists that qualify for blue verification. They deserve their recognition. I urge you to consider them. Please see they get the recognition they deserve. #VerifyDisabledTwitter

"Whatever it is that you believe is stopping you from being all you can be, you need to change that right now." -Elijah Cummings.
His words continue to inspire my health care advocacy.
I cannot condone Twitter marginalizing disability advocates like me.

Disabled advocates & activists fight for YOU while they deal with their own health. I know I'm 1 of them. I've fought from a hospital bed.
I'm glad I have been able to, but I speak for integrity. Twitter's silence to my community speaks VOLUMES! #VerifyDisabledTwitter 3/3

Personally, I've reached out to Twitter about this for years, as I meet their requirements (still have yet to speak with a person). BUT, it's not just me, it's over 100 disability advocates that Twitter CHOOSES to ignore. #VerifyDisabledTwitter 2/3

It's been an amazing journey as a disabled Patient Advocate on Twitter. When I came here in December 2016, I wanted to make a difference. I want you to understand, that in my โค๏ธ I don't want to leave, but I MUST take a stand for my disability community. #VerifyDisabledTwitter 1/3
It is with๐on #ValentinesDay that I am announcing I will be deactivating my Twitter account as of 3/14/22. I don't have the physical & emotional energy to fight Twitter's marginalization of the disability community & for a blue check for my advocacy anymore (see note below). 1/4

For those of you who haven't read @LiamODellUK's article on @premiumbusiness's failure to #VerifyDisabledTwitter please do. As mentioned in my pinned Tweet, Twitter's failure to address me & my disability community is impacting my decision to leave this platform.

Thank you, Liam for your amazing article amplifying @premiumbusiness's FAILURE to #VerifyDisabledTwitter
It's been my hope that @Twitter would reach out to me & other activists of our disability community, & address us personally. We deserve that visibility & dignity.
@sleepyknave Yep- got denied by @premiumbusiness yet again, even after showing I have articles with bylines in @washingtonpost and @aarp. I've had recent articles published in magazines with ISSN/ISBN numbers . Been blazing trails in disability&sexuality for years. #VerifyDisabledTwitter
@allylovespono @TwitterSupport Reeeeported. This is ridiculous to allow this to go on.
#VerifyDisabledTwitter
@allylovespono @premiumbusiness @TwitterBlue @Twitter Hey if you haven't also filled out a report here, please give it a try. It won't let me submit it on your behalf, but it might bump it up in visibility at @twittersafety until or unless they @premiumbusiness @twitterblue #verifydisabledtwitter already.

@allylovespono @TwitterSupport @AllisonWallis5 Reported, again. For the third or fourth time. @TwitterSupport this is beyond ridiculous. #verifydisabledtwitter !
