a lot of their harm is built around dependence on them

we can do stuff about many forms of it without direct interaction, and we do not need their permission for it

How we treat puberty relates heavily to the systems of transphobia, sexism, and quite a lot of other hierarchies. How we treat it is a large component of systematic oppression and must be taken seriously.

not all murderers are criminals, in fact I would say the worst weren't

whether or not the murder was legal is of no consequence

this is like me saying "trans people are cool" and you replying with "actually blaire white is a fascist and she is trans"

nah criminals are cool, the issue with politicians is that they make law

well i write out the script and related information in a big document, I could probably share that from a burner account for my videos

  1. yes, they were specifically asked for, and closed captions are also available
  2. I will try increasing the size for my next video and see how that works
  3. the point was to summarize it for people with difficulties with short term memory (a lot of the people I work with), and putting it before may add confusion on that end
  4. I was trying less pauses with this one, but yeah might not be as good.

and for information overload, the point is that it is as condensed and short as possible, i deal with a lot of people who need that level of information to stay engaged. This exists as an alternative to those slow 2+hour essays. Ultimately that will likely always be an issue for a good portion of people

well ultimately it is looking at 2 things at once, do you have any suggestions?

i mean, democracy is a hierarchical idea in the first place so its not like it makes much of a difference to me. I mean in the general sense here though specifically, so I think the tense is fine

it is clear when you look at ecosystems for example, if a single disease can wipe out all adult trees in a forest it kills all new sprouts and it stops being a forest. (Tree sprouts tend to not do well in direct sunlight because they expect the shade of trees above them and all that)

so if you only have one kind of trees you are on a timer

this is the same with how we interact, and why organizing in systems that can coexist with as many other systems as possible is a requirement for survival. This is one of the biggest reasons why I'm an anarchist, because the point of the state is to force everyone to exist within one set of rules and such

I'm autistic, I've been called "detached and academic" my whole life, if you are inclusive how about you try including how I like to communicate instead of treating my existence like a problem to be fixed

what makes you think attacking me how I interact makes me want to interact more closely?

i mean i did mention replying to comments though, so idk how they could assume that i was planning on ignoring them?

idk it feels like bad faith assumptions

like people keep saying im not going to use peoples pronouns when i didnt say anything about that?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (6 children)

deeper context involves like, reading the last 10 posts someone made to get an idea of who they are before responding, is that expected here? I am not understanding what you want from me

I never said anything about not seeing people as complex humans? I'm confused

People can do shitty things with accessibility. I could use alt-text on images to figure out who I could call slurs when I might not be able to otherwise.

That is not an argument against accessibility. People can potentially use their access to society to do harm, but not having access is guaranteed harm. It is not just guaranteed harm though, it is specifically systematic harm against disabled people on the basis of being disabled. Doing hierarchy because some members of another group might potentially choose to do hierarchy themselves does not reduce hierarchy overall, it makes it much worse.

Anybody who blames the accessibility tools themselves is a reactionary. This includes what people do with stuff like AI. No matter how much you try you will never go back to some ideal past. The AI is not going away. Your choice is simply whether or not you do hierarchy.
