I've lost count of how many theorists I've now read telling me that ableism is undertheorised.

Oh no. Why do I suspect queer theory is coming up?pic.twitter.com/E5ribh8Tp7

OK, so on page 5 of this new book, I already know it's going to tell me absolutely nothing about ableism but blather on opening up "questions" and stringing together words that don't fit & making some of them up. That'll certainly benefit disabled people.

I wish I'd read more queer theory before we did our probe. I could write an excellent parody of one now. The "questions" i could just ask. The words I could make up. The metaphors I could conjure up.

Actually,
@ConceptualJames would do well at the metaphors. He likes them. You have no idea how many I've saved you from in our joint pieces. Did you want two-headed dragons in our manifesto? You didn't, did you? You have me to thank for not having them.6 odpowiedzi 2 podane dalej 26 polubionychPokaż ten wątek -
No, Helen! You've done so well today. Finish the course. Read the book queering ableism. Then you can have wine.

I keep reading this. That neo-liberalism underlies ableism because the idea that it's better if all your parts work is really because we want to individualise and responsibilise people into being self-sufficient human beings to serve the god of capitalism.

Can't tell you how much I hate this idea that it is oppressive to be "individualised." Please forgive me for thinking you are actually a unique person with autonomy & agency & your own potential to be fulfilled & that anything that helps you do that is a good thing.

I think there is an intentional linguistic confusion (on the part of the whoever is mixing the two disparate things up) of what's usually known as "spiritual freedom" and what's often described as "total selfishness." The result is tragic in practical terms.
