they/them
I am a queer, autistic, disabled, anarchist. I have a focus on fighting ableism, and run spaces with that being an intention. One thing I put a lot of focus on is ableist language. I stream, run a youtube channel, and a discord.
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
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?
yeah the hatred of bikes is a big one, and so are cars. Lots of the "an"prim type on that front. Being able to walk places is cool, removing all cars is not.
well lots of people blaming AI art for things, when it is just a different method to make art, cameras a while ago following the same trend
Then there is the constant attack of service animals and such being allowed places. There are more I have talked about before but I can’t remember them off the top of my head
it tends to be on a much more individual basis, peoples support of accessibility tools being conditional on whether or not they like that particular person. Similar to how liberals often try misgendering right wingers, especially trans ones like blair white and all that.
what if, by giving the lesser evil more energy and making them a greater evil, you give them the ability to put you in prison camps when the original greater evil could not?
Nobody is protesting the concentration camps under biden, or even calling them that, yet they did under trump.
Everyone upvoting this person missed the point of the post
even if the servers are queer friendly, I haven’t found one yet that doesn’t allow things like ableist language. They only feel marginally better with the tradeoff of smaller games
yeah, and sadly that happens nonstop
organizing in a way where disabled people are inherently accommodated instead of shoved into some “extra” system makes a big difference
it is entitled to think that it isn’t ableist to force people into systems instead of building systems around the people
oh let me guess, politics is whether you check red or blue on a small piece of paper every 4 years?
I need to finish setting mine up lol, maybe I can just add on steam directly
nice, do ya got a discord or something I could add?
do think it can sometimes be harder to build an initial rapport online. The lack of body language can make it tricky to convey meaning sometimes in the same way you would offline
im autistic, that makes it easier. People can use tone indicators online.
a big issue is accessibility as well, a lot of those are organized around headshots and are much less clear visually, as well as requiring much stronger computers to play
so while tf2 has a fascist problem, it also has a lot of people i aint gonna leave behind
which is why i play them with groups of people
i turn mics off
overwatch fucked itself up so hard its barely playable now
literally none of them have spy or anything close to it for a start
a lot of other games, but none like those I’m afraid
and I haven’t seen a game that takes moderation seriously enough yet, they are all run by capitalists
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
