Your statement is very offensive to people with disabilities (the largest minority) that often experience discrimination, are often denied accessibility services, and even are being excluded from the diversity and inclusion equation:https://svknyc.com/journal/2017/09/why-diversity-and-inclusion-means-nothing-without-accessibility/ …

I never said anything negative about people with disabilities or whether they're excluded from D&I. I'm stating how people like

I haven't dismissed anything. I'm trying to tell you where you rank in their hierarchy of oppression.

Yes you are dismissing people with disabilities by making their frustrations irrelevant. If you are not disabled, you don’t understand what it’s like to live with a disability.

Do you realize that there are white people who have disabilities?

Yes, which is why I wrote "your whiteness trumps your disability" in my original tweet. That's not my personal POV. That's the POV of SJWs in that thread.

So you are saying that problems of people with disabilities are irrelevant if they are white? Is it okay to discriminate against them and to deny accessibility services to them?
