Nothing ever happens (ableism edition)

I'm pink

Ableist is red

Subreddit is white

I'm not sure if the username censoring rule applies to myself but just in case I did so anyways.

I'm just so taken aback by the audacity of someone to make the claim that I would lie about a disability and to be honest so insulted that some loser talking out of their ass is attempting to diminish my achievement. I just cannot comprehend the nerve of some people.

Incomplete spinal fracture gang rise up or whatever the kids say. If I never have to hear another person tell me (or anyone else) it's not a disability because I'm not paralyzed I could die happy.

But have you considered that having the mobility of an 80 year old at age 30 actually means that you're perfectly healthy? ignores the fact that at age 80 most people are considered disabled
