This is quite spectacularly tone deaf.
Two of my work friends have disabilities: one is a wheelchair user and the other has a visual impairment. A couple of years ago they organised a day with various academics, artists and activists and included activities which sort of ‘placed’ and made very real the accessibility issues they face daily (e.g. group guided walks around unfamiliar buildings where we had to close our eyes, etc).
Putting aside how much emotional labour is always required from marginalised groups to articulate their lived experience in order to receive the most basic empathy, accessibility in this country and even in supposed equality champion workplaces is absolutely abysmal. Every single day these smart, accomplished people face dozens of ostensibly small, but significant, barriers to accessing information and support needed to do their jobs: building designs which require lift users to traverse an entire horseshoe shaped building to go up one floor, scanned articles flummoxing screenreader programmes, lines of sight or accessible entrances blocked by temporary erections (lol sorry ) etc etc etc it’s endless. And other than to occasionally vent as anyone would, and spend their own time and energy educating the rest of us, these things don’t interfere with the quality of their work or research. People with disabilities have to work thrice as hard to overcome these barriers constantly thrown into their paths.
Jack, bleeping Jack, is able bodied, self-diagnosed ASD and doctor-shopped for ADHD meds. This in no way precludes her from achieving anything she wants or needs to. Apart from giving her an excuse to be unspeakably rude to people online, it hasn’t stopped her getting book deals, newspaper columns, TV gigs or corporate sponsorship. Where, other than the supposed arthritis which conveniently flares up when she is under scrutiny, is her life or lifestyle really hindered? If anything she uses her neurodivergence as an excuse to do even less work.
I say this as a certified neuro-atypical myself: the wheelchair emoji isn’t for us, Jack. Stop play acting and enjoy your relative health and good fortune while you’re young. Get help for your personality disorder. Take accountability.
