Please stop using "blindness" as a lazy synonym for "ignorance" in your writing. If there’s one thing about Blind folks: we survive and thrive by being perceptive, observing patterns and responding to cues. Not only is this use of "blindness" rude — it's uninformed. Mistaken. Obtuse. Naive. Counterfactual. There you go — five better ways to say "ignorant" than "Blind"
@ChanceyFleet Thanks for the reminder. Ableist phrases have become so deeply rooted in our languages that even without intention we enforce their use by repetition. I will do my best to be more aware.
