Thank you Amy! Just doing my best 💕

Anyway reminder that solidarity is not transactional, and giving into eugenics is, among other things - deeply embarrassing.

With enough time and luck, disability is coming for all of us. Do yourself a favour and start dealing with the hole in your politics now 💕

We will never win if we continue to abandon the people most impacted by the very systems we are claiming to fight.

If when it gets inconvenient we’re just replicating the same attitudes as the fash and the same abandonment as the state, what exactly is the point in what we're doing?

It’s not surprising if we look to history- pandemics and a rise in fascist/eugenicist rhetoric go hand in hand.

But if we look to history we should also know that disabled activists have been vital in antifascist + workers movements since forever. Erasing their contributions is helps no one

There is a very real push of eugenicist ideas occuring and over the coming years it’s likely to only get worse -I am begging you to resist it.

Already I’ve seen leftist organisers complaining that disabled people cannot offer anything to a movement because they dared to ask for masks at a meeting

Genuinely, try to name for me a form of oppression that doesn’t result in, or amplify the impacts of disability.

Spoiler: you can’t.

If you care about healthcare, abolition, housing, workers rights, bodily autonomy - if you care about liberation you need to include disability justice.

The new garden I’ve been making recently is going OFF and the passionfruit vines are already flowering! So many great veggies have popped up from the compost. The yard is being visited regularly by a family of magpies. It’s a tiny pocket of the world but feels so lush and full of life 💕
