#internalizedableism — Public Fediverse posts

Distancing yourself from the #disability community, when you’re obviously disabled or a person with a disability IS caused by #ableism & internalized ableism I’ve seen this frequently in the #stuttering community & the #ADHD community #InternalizedAbleism #StutteringAwareness #StammeringAwareness

I think in order to feel #DisabilityPride, a person needs to have a workable answer to this question: What does it mean to believe in oneself _and_ accept one's own limitations?

How do YOU relate to the things you're bad at but have to do anyway? Or the things you feel judged for not being able to do at all?

Being #disabled does NOT make a person pathetic! Aw HELL no. But the cultural messages say otherwise & I'm really struggling with *feeling* pathetic, worthless, etc. I don't think we can talk about #DisabilityPride without also talking about #DisabilityShame.

#RandomThoughts
Is it internalized ableism that I intentionally chose the selfie that I thought looked the most autisticy for my profile pic on this account?

Is it ableism that I even have any notion of what autism looks like?

🤔
