  1. Yeah, they're fun to run into online. I have no doubt they're mentally ill but everyone I ran into online has turned out to be a massive con artist and emotionally manipulative. A lot of the anger is in part because a lot of disabled people struggle to accept their disability due to the social limitations and therefore are upset someone would want that for themselves, but also the idea that they might access extremely limited disability services and accommodations.
  2. Wasn't most of the criticism from black people themselves upset she was claiming to be experiencing the same oppression? In the disability community those with body integrity identity disorder (BIID) are rejected hard because many feel it is an insult to the true experience of whatever disability they identify with. If I'm upstairs in a burning building, I am completely reliant on others to carry me out, but if someone with BIID is in the same situation, they'll get up out of the wheelchair and walk down the stairs (those with BIID in wheelchairs somehow always identify as a T-4 Para, a pretty simple to manage disability, even then they'll feel their ass hurt and aren't at risk of dying from a pressure sore).
  3. I think a lot of this is the result Bernie losing and a clear leader of the progressive movement not being obvious. That loss of leadership scattered the left and opened up the left to the same grift that made MAGA popular, essentially when you tie the anti establishment that they both share. A lot of like the Dore and Bree types are probably progressive, but they're so anti establishment they view MAGA as an ally. Dore, before leaving TYT, said he wanted Trump to win because things would get so bad it would unify the left against establishment liberals who created the conditions for a Trump to rise. Bernie losing again despite Trump winning in 2016 turned them all extremely bitter and more extreme against the establishment, an extremism that the algo boosts, and right wing media funders are more than happy to bankroll (including Russians funding the Greyzone types).
  4. Trans abled is a thing that spicy in the disability community.
