As this place is getting pretty bad and lots of folks are jumping, gonna pin this for the moment. I hate that Elon trashed this place so badly. I dont want to lose my friends/mutals here :-/ Not sure which ap I might go to consistently but I have them just in case😅
Hey All,
So if Twitter truly starts up no use without $ that will be the end for me I think. Can be found on bluesky, insta, and maybe threads? Idk i do have an account. Same for spoutible.
@jewishstudent1@dov_rabinowitz@M_Mystic_1234@Annatated Neither Anna nor I are leftists… and @dov_rabinowitz brought up didacticism… I’m not sure why it’s so hard for both of you to understand why it’s crappy to tell disabled people they shouldn’t expect any better but I’m going to leave this conversation now
@dov_rabinowitz@M_Mystic_1234@jewishstudent1@Annatated Its really not my job or anna’s job to educate… it shouldnt be hard to agree a society should maybe do better for vulnerable people & not just throw up its hands. Its super un-jewish to me to see someone pointing out a societal issue for marginalized folks & say “dont fix it”
@jewishstudent1@dov_rabinowitz@M_Mystic_1234@Annatated But why did you feel the need to comment “we don’t need to do better”! It’s actually not OK for a society to be complacent when a vulnerable community points out something harming them that has a pretty simple solution
@dov_rabinowitz@M_Mystic_1234@jewishstudent1@Annatated People can make mistakes. People can say something racist or antisemitic or ableist and not be horrible people. The issue is when they refuse to listen and instead push back and double down instead of learning.
@dov_rabinowitz@M_Mystic_1234@jewishstudent1@Annatated I was only telling him why the tweet was problematic and why it upset me so much. I didn’t say he was a horrible person. I said that the tweet was pretty awful and I explained why. You don’t need to defend him as a person. 1/
@dov_rabinowitz@M_Mystic_1234@jewishstudent1@Annatated He COULD have just said “oh, i didnt know you are a wheelchair user. I get why this upset you and you are right the city could do better” and that would have ended this…but both of you seem hell bent on defending “it sucks for disabled people but thats ok”
@dov_rabinowitz@M_Mystic_1234@jewishstudent1@Annatated He Rted her!!! That IS an attack on her post. He doesnt know Anna. He didnt have to say “well its ok that the city isnt accessible”. Yes thars ableist whether or not he meant it that way. And you are BOTH still trying to defend it. Wtf
@dov_rabinowitz@M_Mystic_1234@jewishstudent1@Annatated Again… he could have said NOTHING. He went out of his way to rt Anna… and she IS a wheelchair user directly effected by this issue. He didnt know that but also… he could have SAID NoTHING
@dov_rabinowitz@M_Mystic_1234@jewishstudent1@Annatated Saying “it sucks to be disabled but you shouldnt ever expect anything better or ANY accommodations” sure does sound pretty ableist to me. That was the rt. “Dont ask for better cause society shouldnt care about you. It just is the way it is and thats ok”
@M_Mystic_1234@jewishstudent1@dov_rabinowitz@Annatated Like… here is a person talking about a SMALL measure to make the city more accessible (its really not very accessible btw…) & @jewishstudent1 went out of his way to rt & say “stop complaining things are just worse for disabled people & thats that”. We CAN do better (or just 🤐)
@dov_rabinowitz@M_Mystic_1234@jewishstudent1@Annatated Whether or not Anna herself uses a wheelchair or knows somebody who uses a wheelchair, her comment was just asking the city to do better for disabled residence who need clear entries to the street from the sidewalks. There is no excuse for retweeting to say “just deal with it”
@dov_rabinowitz@M_Mystic_1234@jewishstudent1@Annatated It’s a minor inconvenience if you’re able-bodied. you’re a mom with a stroller or a person in a wheelchair or walking with a cane or dealing with a broken leg or unstable on your feet for any reason… it means that the city becomes inaccessible & it’s already pretty inaccessible
@dov_rabinowitz@M_Mystic_1234@jewishstudent1@Annatated No one said it would… this was AFTER the blizzard. NY notoriously doesnt do a good job cleaning up and it specifically harms disabled community. All Anna’s post said is “we can do better” and @jewishstudent1 said “nah. We cant and shouldnt try”
@jewishstudent1@dov_rabinowitz@M_Mystic_1234@Annatated Sure. But why did you feel the need to rt Anna saying “this really is something the city has to work on” with the comment “nah lets not try to do better. Sucks to be disabled but oh well”🤦🏻♀️
@jewishstudent1@Annatated But even if she personally wasnt a wheelchair user… why did you feel the need to rt and tell her it was not worthwhile asking for better and disabled people should just be happy to suffer more. THATS what pissed me off and just seems so unnecessarily nasty
@jewishstudent1@Annatated And you didnt have to rt her to say “suck it up” 🤷🏻♀️ Like why did you feel the need to see her post and rather than support (or say NOTHING) rt and say “well sorry but your life is just worse and society shouldnt do anything about it”
