The most important thing that disability teaches you is that in our culture humans have no value except as a commodity.
Normal people always seem awfully surprised when they find this out.
Massimiliano Siddi@Fischblog Und kaum fällt man in Grundsicherung, wenn man zu jung arbeitsunfähig wird, muss man erst mal sein Vermögen - also das, was man bis dahin erspart hat - abschmelzen bis auf einen mickrigen Schutzbetrag im vierstelligen Bereich. Schließlich muss man regelmäßig nachweisen, dass man nicht doch arbeitstätig sein könnte, eine Tetraplegie sich spontan selbst geheilt hat, fehlende Organe/Gliedmaßen wieder neu entstanden sind. Das will die Mehrheit der Deutschen.

Ulrike Walter-Lipow@Fischblog Yup, completely in line with the discussion we had on here this morning, how those affected by post-covid ME/CFS seem surprised that without doing their own advocacy, they will be ignored ... just like all people with disabilities/chronic diseases have been and are ...
doncish@lipow @Fischblog I always wonder why some people 'get it' - even while still having their own advocacy - while others only realize this when their advocacy is gone for good or for a sufficiently long period of time.

This is common in fascist societies: people with disabilities are treated as a burden.

Do they only get surprised or do something to make a change?

@nuwagaba2 depends, I think.

Gnomigut@nuwagaba2 @Fischblog sometime people are not able to make a change. That’s the hard part about all this, and I guess that’s the hard part to realize: not being able.

@Fischblog I really not just think this needs changing but actively work towards said change.

In the US you're not considered valuable as a human being unless you're contributing to the wealth of the 1%. That's why NEETs are despised even if they're doing volunteer work or other stuff that's beneficial. That's why art is not considered a worthwhile contribution, yet rich people get a tax break for donating art to an art museum. It's all about helping the rich get even richer.
