It's clear that Jorts' takes on the labor movement and workers' rights doesn't include disabled people. Jorts (the ppl behind it) are just like many liberals/leftists in that sense.

Autoimmune disease: Your body has abnormal immune responses (super watered down explanation). The list is long and treatment may include immunosuppressants like NSAIDs. That means it suppresses the immune system. U know what can happen then? More susceptible to infections/virus

I wrote a tweet yesterday about disabled folks in Ukraine, and the amount of people saying “and also ppl w (insert disability)” tells me that so many of you still don’t see disability as more than what you can see. That’s part of the disability justice/equity barrier

A wheelchair user is a pedestrian. We use sidewalks. We are safe on sidewalks bc sidewalks were meant for pedestrians. We wouldn’t be safe sharing a lane that requires us to leave the sidewalks and be with bikes esp when bike riders dgaf about wheelchairs in the path

These “jokes” yall making? Is the first time some of you even said the word or talked about disability. How about doing some googling and learn about this community so you know…idk, that we are people?

AND THE WAY they keep talking up mental illness and homeless status. Like they took forever to tell us the killer's name and that he is military, but took NO TIME to tell us Neely was homeless and call him "unhinged" and bring up mental illness. Framing is everything

The way he put his hands on his hips and nodded his head with a smile? You knew he was bringing the hot sauce. But also, Mr. WaWa is deaf. They actually used someone from the community. #DisabledBlackHistory was made right there. If only it didn't have to be during a pandemic.

[ED] Society applauds, EXPECTS, fat ppl to restrict. To count calories. To do food deprivation. Workout excessively. So much so that when we show signs of an ED, it’s ignored and seen as just dieting
