Not cool. We don’t make fun of people because they are in wheelchairs
He's a living, breathing piece of shit. A real medical marvel if you ask me. He deserves to be called every single slur in the book.
Associating that sack of shit with people who need wheelchairs is an insult to all people with a disability.
I'm sure people with disabilities aren't standing up for him.
We have free reign when the subject is a fascist piece of republican trash who pardons cold blooded murderers.
I wish the tree would have done a better job on that absolute waste of human life.
No you don’t.
By attacking his wheelchair instead of his actual policies you are saying the fact that he is handicapped is worse than his policies.
You can choose plenty of words for the cancerous anal fissure leakage of a person, but don’t attack his wheelchair, because then you are attacking everyone in one.
It’s not about me, you, or him at that point.
