It's really scary to have to ask someone for help in general. Especially when you're disabled and need accommodations. The expectation that disabled people have to ask and beg for help is messed up. Help should already be available from the beginning to anyone that needs it.

Many get more upset at this than actual abusers and rapists, and we are treated like we are horrible people for not excluding ourselves from social events (yet people so often defend horrible behavior).

Robust, visionary DEIA efforts are important - but point is that this isn't just targeting newer, more progressive programs. We're going back to *pre civil rights act* levels of training and support and transfer dollars are going to be wasted defending avoidable lawsuits

So when they are going after offices that rename themselves BACK to the names they had 4 years ago, that means they are shutting down programs that operated for decades incl under Trump 1.0, & without which PWD can't get accomodations, and they can't do basic anti-discrimination trainings

Omg. This is the height of absurdity given how many people are on the verge of losing lifesaving medical care!
