Should people with learning disabilities be allowed to work for less than the minimum wage? Debate on @bbc5live ~ @Emmabarnett Alternate phrasing of this question: should employers be allowed to exploit some of society's most vulnerable people? ~ @stavvers
Even if vaccines did cause autism, I would still vax my child. Like, yeah, we can talk about how it's infactual [sic] that vaccines cause autism, but let's also talk about how deep the hatred for autistic people goes that people would rather have a dead or sick child than an autistic one. ~ @archivistwasp I love everything about this tweet, including the implicit suggestion English speakers adopt "infactual" as a word.

Ableism is a form of discrimination or social prejudice against people with disabilities. It may also be referred to as disability discrimination, physicalism, handicapism, and disability oppression. It is also sometimes known as disablism, although there is some dispute as to whether ableism and disablism are synonymous, and some people within disability rights circles find the latter term's use inaccurate. Discrimination faced by those who have or are perceived to have a mental disorder is som Philosophy Theories, Philosophy Books, Western Philosophy, Discrimination Quotes, School Of Philosophy, Nietzsche Quotes, Previous Papers, Philosophical Thoughts

I really admire the design for these stairs and how they incorporate a wheelchair access ramp. In a world where barrier free design is essential to living a full and happy life, its amazing to see landscape architect Cornelia Oberlander has taken literal steps to design stairs AROUND a ramp, instead of the other way around. ~ @define-space Faith In Humanity Restored, Landscape Architect, Landscape Design, Architecture Design, Architecture Memes, Architecture Panel, Drawing Architecture, Architecture Portfolio, Architecture Photography

"Locking your wheelchair lift and requiring disabled people to find an employee to unlock AND OPERATE it is a direct violation of the ADA.
