CYRT, Yes there are a wide variety of behaviours and experiences, and very obviously language and terminology evolves and embraces new ideas and words. However acknowledging those different experiences does not mean that all of us involved in acivism in general and disability activism specifically are required to agree that a common usage of a phrase that many of do not in any way find offensive in specific contexts is offensive just because you say it is. I'm sorry that you're so unwilling to accept the fact that there is not one true way to be an activist, and that you're seemingly incapable of acknowledging that your opinion is not universally accepted and that not agreeing with you does not necessarily mean that they are wrong or being offensive.

Well that's quite the case of pot, kettle and black! so I guess I'll leave it there!

yeah, I think it's great that something we wrote years ago is still having an effect on people. I can get how it might feel a bit embarrassing if your writing style changed or improved a lot though. but the people who are commenting obviously think the style is good!

I think that's gonna be a while.

It looks like there was nothing posted until Jan 22 last year so there's still hope.

I have an outline for my assignment, a clear idea for one treat and a vague idea for the other.

lol what, the cyrt is the one talking about different people having different experiences, you're the one insisting that just because you haven't seen something before means it doesn't exist, kinda looks like you're the one whose unwilling to accept the fact that there's more than one way to look at stuff.

I don't suppose anyone has a list of people who've said they're open to art treats? can't imagine how it would be possible to compose one but I'd love to see it if there is

I just finished that as well! I don't think I enjoyed it quite as much as you did based on this comment, but I liked it a lot, and art for it would be amazing.

Nah.

I know you’re not going to, because antis give you an excuse to never examine your own thoughts or behavior ever, but see if you can rattle that marble you call a brain long enough to provide a link to wear a French person in America became a target for hate crimes on the basis of speaking their native language.

"simply that it was inappropriate not to tell someone else they shouldn't find it problematic"

So you actually agree with the ayrt, then. Lol, give it a rest already--you can't even make sense of what you're trying to say yourself.

How you acted or did not act during that debacle is besides the point. You DID willfully ignore the context in this thread, which is what we're talking about. Stop trying to derail things to make yourself look better.

Ditto all of this.

Your lousy English makes it blatantly obvious that you are, indeed, the CYRT in question. This is just sad.

haha, gotta drop in and suggest you acquire yourself some reading comprehension, cos you're a little embarrassing rn

a) no but good try and b) wtf is wrong with my english?

I've never heard of anyone wearing a French person, so that's sure a tall order.

Maybe rattle your own brain a little and try to learn the difference between "wear" and "where"? Maybe even do it before the next time you try to disparage someone's intelligence just for having a different view than you.

CYRT

...Maybe read it again? You really should aquire some reading comprehension yourself before going around making such a fool of yourself.

All lowercase, extreme run-on sentence, don't know the difference between "whose" and "who's", etc.

Did you really just resort to correcting spelling or grammar to "win" your point?

I don't care what people ship but come on, your standards need to be higher than this.

I wasn't the coalie they replied to, actually. I just dislike it when people call others stupid over a difference in opinion, especially when doing so while displaying their own stupidity so blatantly.

It's kind of sad that even when pointed out to you you still can't tell what's wrong.

Thanks so much for your helpful corrections! Can't see any instances of other coalie using whose or who's but good luck with your conspiracy theories. I will try to keep my sentences nice and short for you in future.

also hey, guess what? Some people have dyslexia. Some people have learning difficulties. I'm so sorry that "woeful English" offends you so much. you really are a shinning light of access and pro-disability.

DC

I think the point was that the other coalie also misspelled things and had bad grammar; not specifically a usage of whose/who's.
