As a disabled person you’re spot on.

It’s the kind of people saying that disabled people should just “get on with their life” and stop “making everything about their disability”.

Like yeah sure Bradley, I would do that, if I could get on with my life because c*nts like you didn’t deny every attempt at making the world accessible. Maybe if people like you didn’t complain every time a cent was spent on an accessibility fund or on medical research I would actually be able to be getting on with my life.

But no, since we’re treated like shit I have to make “everything about my disability” just for my basic survival. Because if I don’t I’ll just be left in a ditch to starve.

I fear by "get on with life" they might just mean "end your life".

That’s what it feels like to me.

It’s something like “Live as if you weren’t disabled because you making your disability visible bothers me. And if you’re unable to do that, well either stay in an institution where you belong or if you can’t afford that you should just die”

Get on with your life = status quo worship
