    If your economic development requires militarized police to prevent journalists from covering its enforcement, it's the wrong kind of economic development. I can't believe you don't get this in 2020 , ,

    Which does not mean unhealthy boundaries or human relatives only. Made and more-than-human relatives are important intimacies, for some of us more sustaining than biological human relatives.

    The sheer number of & staff involved this time around suggests a wider corporate culture of ableism that places a lower human value on disabled and/or elderly people.

    Or how this ableist, bigoted behavior on the part of so many & staff must affect countless individuals with more severe cognitive or physical disabilities, who lack the $$$ to travel back & forth to the airport, or who lack immediate family support.

    Not one of these or staff had the decency to assist my mom or even speak respectfully to her. I shudder to think what she might have gone through had my spouse & I not been there to assist.

    ...who refused to assist with ensuring she has the extra legroom she requires, both for her knee condition & to assist my brother with his special travel needs, who said “What do you want?!” in a confrontational tone when my mom went back to the desk to ask a follow-up question.

    .....the 5 or so staff at the who were rude to my elderly, disabled mother, who blamed her for not checking her email on the way to the airport to see that her flight had been cancelled (she doesn’t have phone data in the US to enable her to do so)...

    This time, there are so many & staff involved: the people who misplaced my mom’s bag, the countless CSR’s she spoke to on the phone who said it wasn’t their problem (it was), the carrier who refused to bring my mom’s bag to the door....

    This trip represents a new low in numerous respects. My mom’s previous experience could be chalked up to the behavior of a bigoted, ableist passenger and a poorly trained flight attendant.

    Following this flight, which was extremely painful for my mom (who has a knee condition) because she couldn’t stretch out her leg, apologized profusely and promised to do better. But only after being publicly shamed on Twitter, of course.

    Indeed, my mom’s last run-in with involved a flight attendant forcibly relocating her and my brother with Down syndrome from their pre-booked seats with necessary extra legroom because a fellow passenger didn’t want to sit next to my brother.
