Anarchist and rad spaces in general have a huge ableism problem.

I appreciate everyone who speaks on their experiences as disabled lefties.

No, we don't. All I ever hear about in leftist spaces is 'ableism,' and 99% of the time it's just someone who feels a little depressed and doesn't want to go outside, or someone claiming falsely to be autistic.

"We must fraternize with those who tread upon the liberties of the oppressed, and it is disgusting. You can almost hear the ghosts of capitalist propaganda mocking in your ear: “see how good you have it under capitalism? You could not reach these heights without it. You could not thrive as you so now without capitalism.” Yet the vicious beast of capital also neglects to tell us that we are forced into this position."

Oh, you poor thing!

"One such thing [a problem with social anarchism] being that if I am required to got [sic] to a meeting in order to let my voice heard in the organization, but I have a doctor’s appointment on that day, then my voice will suddenly be excluded."

This is what I hate about this type of idpol. People take problems that apply to everyone and assume they only apply to themselves.

Democracy sucks. It doesn't suck more if you have cystic fibrosis or whatever.

Okay, take a step back.

Yes, these problems are more common than people like to think, yes Democracy is pooptastic, but people are more likely to listen if you're not demeaning them.
