I have cancer. I’m open about it. This medicaid funding shit could literally kill me.

I am so sick of people suggesting I should “pull a Luigi” or “go out like a hero” because they still have things to lose so they don’t want to stand up and lose them. So because I’m gonna die, I should say fuck it and risk it all for a bunch of jerks who wouldn’t and haven’t done the same for me?

Do you have any idea how disrespectful that is to people who are already suffering? When nobody is standing up to sacrifice themselves to save the weak, broken, sick, and disabled? Why’s it our job to save the able bodied? Why can’t these people see that even though they think their heart is in the right place, they’re still basically telling us “your life sucks anyway and will end soon, you should throw it away for the rest of us who never did anything for you” or more simply “kys.”

I’m officially tired of this inconsiderate and frankly ableist bullshit.

Honestly, I wish some mods or admins would make some rules about it since it’s ableist.

    Don’t like being told how to fix something? Don’t bitch about it in a public forum

    They’re telling you how to help yourself and other disabled people, not asking you to do something for able-bodied people, but go off on assumptions
