      Nah, because its the disability being leveraged to harm me with a total lack of ethics or concern by a spectacular piece of shit. The disability becomes the aggression, or a shield for it, here.

      And so hurting them on that axis becomes funny and good.

        I am talking about people on actual crutches. Stop talking about kicking out crutches. That is cruel.

          Its the one I’ve had to fuck with for a year+ the various times I’ve re-learned to walk. And it was occasionally very funny when I’d slip while doing so.

          And I’ve been through enough of this shit that ‘cruel’ doesn’t feel like the criticism you seem to think it should. I’m kind of proud of it.

            I’m sorry you had to deal with that. But it is not as funny to others as it seems to be for you.

              Why do I care what you find funny?

              Edit: most peoples’ senses of humor are toxic hierarchalist moral-bludgeon nonsense, and their laughter is genuinely disgusting. I don’t know if that’s you, but it’s on the border of null hypothesis for anglophones.

                  Generally those crutches are not a tool of oppression directed at me, generally those crutches aren’t their user actively selling my soul to the devil in silicon valley, or my body to the storm troopers who are going to kill me before the decade’s out.

                    Like I said almost any other metaphor I’m fine with. Fuck the people wearing smart glasses.
