like “supporting” someone with adhd but hating them and believing they should be shunned or treated differently for interrupting others, not paying attention, and not being able to sit still, rather than try to help them or tell them not to interrupt the conversation.
A woman tried to beat me up because of my disability and currently hates me. Rather than talking to me, she wishes death on me because of my mental issues (learning disability and social anxiety)
File a restraining order.
Yes, its ableist. Excluding, insulting or discriminating against people for disability is basically the definition, reguardless of what they claim. Saying they’re not ableist doesn’t change it, any more than saying something like, “I’m not racist, but…”
I’d you dislike them for those reasons and not because they’re disabled that’s fine. Disabled people can be bad people too
associating psychosis and narcissism with being abusive is textbook ableism, so yeah
Yes, what the fuck
Sometimes Mrs Bizzle will give me a hard time about how I can’t hear. It’s shitty 🥲
If they do it because of someone's disabilities, it's ableist. If they do it and someone happens to be disabled, but that's not connected, it isn't. This sounds like it is about the disabilities, though. And be aware there is more than ableism, people can be assholes, cruel... as well. And all of the bad behaviour can mix.
Yes and these people should not have kids. They would probably disown their child for having a disability and are only kind to neurotypical people
This post is very specific to your anecdotal experiences
Everybody deserves kindness, compassion, and empathy.
Ableist people also include people that idealize not being ableist. They come up with excuses like, “I’m not being ableist, I’m just giving you hard love!” or, “You need to do what I say and do it exactly how I say because I care about you!”.
There was a reddit thread where many people were dog-piling on a severely disabled person. The person was diagnosed with autism with intellectual disability, a severe heart condition, severe PTSD, and ADHD.
Many people came into the thread to say that they were making up their disability, that they should be institutionalized, that they were a troll because their doctor wouldn’t give them bad advice to deal with their heart condition, and so forth.
Reddit? Where rage bait is posted constantly for karma? No possible way that the story was probably assumed to be fake because literally everything else there is?
I read enough of OP’s comments and looked at their past commenting/post history and it was pretty clear that it was a cry for help. It wasn’t for karma, they deleted their account.
You need better friends. It sounds like you’re probably fairly young. Dunno if that’s true, but young people can be real shitheads who talk about each other behind their backs. I did that when I was in my teens and maybe early twenties. If that’s the case, know that most people grow out of that phase. If you’re older than I’m guessing, maybe try to explore how to make friends with people who are more mature. I’m afraid I don’t have pithy advice on that.
Come on guys, this is bait. Lmao
Seems more like a rant to me, or someone being gaslit.
You can believe that people stuck in wheelchairs deserve equal access to public spaces via accommodations like ramps or elevators, and still hate Ted, who happens to be paraplegic, because he is a hateful, racist, fascist MAGA jerk. In this case, your shunning of Ted is not ableist because the reason you treat Ted differently is unrelated to his disability and you are well aware of the fact. He doesn’t get a pass for things unrelated to his disability.
However, if you are aware of someones disability and treat them prejudiciously because of it (or it’s symptoms) then you are the ableist jerk. If you are the one with a disability and people treat you in a prejudicious manner because your disabilities or their symptoms, then they are jerks and not friends.

It’s ok to dislike someone or not want to be their friend for any reason, but everyone deserves rights, that’s what rights are.
