Angelichallows - Just Your Average Autistic Bitch

every time i think of these two and their dynamic i think of that one scene from adventure time

How about y'all just, let disabled people complain, instead of shut us down whenever we bring up anything shitty that's happened to us, instead of make everything about you every time?

We get shit for not being independent and on our own, for living with family members, for being unemployed, for depending on caregivers. People call us losers, leeches, burdens, lazyasses. Like, all of this happens to us all the fucking time. We literally live this.

It doesn't matter one jack bit, doesn't mean a rat's ass to us, that it hasn't happened to you. You are not what these conversations are for.

The word "narcissist" was named after the Greek mythology character Narcissus.

That would make it similar to the word "draconian", which was named after the Athenian tyrant Draco.

By that information alone, it would seem as if there's nothing ableist about calling abusers narcissists.

Now imagine that people were diagnosed with Draconian Personality Disorder, which was a trauma response that caused those affected to respond extra harshly to those who slightly wronged them. Imagine that it was common for people to say "draconians do this, draconians do that, 5 ways to spot a draconian", and they seemed to always use the word "draconian" even though it would be so easy to use a synonym. Imagine that abuse victims struggled to be taken seriously but were easily taken seriously when they say they're a victim of "draconian abuse". Imagine that people frequently wished death on all draconians while applauding people with power who have the exact same patterns that get labeled as draconian.

That would clearly be ableist. And that's exactly what's happening with narcissism.
