And even if Dovi is there, all these drivers know damned well that they are required to accommodate service dogs. It’s literally in their contracts. Why are y’all doing backflips to defend this raggedy 1930s ableism?

The ablesplainers I’m seeing come out of the leftist closet today, goddamn. Damn near all of us have some invisible disability that we struggle to manage, but we’re perfectly cool being assholes to folks who have to navigate literal physical barriers. What the hell?

It's not about the law, it's about being a good person. It's classicist to assume that a person's lack of economic resources means their sense of right and wrong is broken. ADA exists because ableism has taught us to not do the right thing when it comes to disabled ppl.

I had that happen in Scotland, we said I couldn’t make it up stairs to a bridgeway because I couldn’t climb stairs. We told them I had a chair. There was a back way with a flat road, which was where we’d wait. He just blew us off.

I worked a few years doing mobility support, and more than a dozen times saw taxi drivers reject their client once realising they were blind, or elderly, or otherwise might need just a *tiny* bit of help.

This is just ableism with extra steps.
