Remember: climate change, police brutality, lack of healthcare, COVID, transphobia, burnout, sexism, mass shootings, poverty, racism, genocide, etc… they all cause disability.
Remember: anyone can become disabled at any time.
You must remember this because the fascists do. And they weaponize it.

Gotta stop letting folks tell you that criminals deserve bad treatment in this era when criminality has become "feeding the homeless" & "seeking trans healthcare".
Soon it'll be "not reporting your neighbors". Yall better start liking criminals better than cops quick if we're gonna fight fascism.

Can't ever forget how "Crime" & "criminality" are made up categories (like all categories) & how their definitions are, at present, completely captured & controlled by hegemony/status quo, & how the willful doublethink around those facts forms the root of a lot of our problems, in the US especially.
