Reposted by Tony SumpterKelly @broadwaybabyto.bsky.social · 27/09/2026People aren’t faking their disabilities, they’re faking being well. We know society hates us. We know we will be judged for using assistive devices. Many of us take years to get the courage to lean in to accommodations. Stop judging. Help us build a more inclusive world. 573285852
Reposted by Tony SumpterKelly @broadwaybabyto.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Disabled people make society uncomfortable. Left or right…. It doesn’t matter. People want to believe it can’t happen to them. That if they become disabled there will be a magic “fix”. We challenge their denial, so they deny us solidarity and support. That’s ableism. 591780473

Reposted by Tony SumpterKelly @broadwaybabyto.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Anyone can become disabled at any time. It’s not a moral failing. It’s not laziness or a lack of effort. It’s a part of the human condition. People get sick. Bodies break down. It’s a minority group you can join any time. 261182379
