In today's edition of Lefties are MISERABLE tools, TechCrunch shames Mr. Beast for helping blind people

Mr. Beast helped people who wanted help … and that’s a bad thing? Somebody make this make sense. To be completely honest, I am just now getting a chance to read through all of the noise around what sounds like a guy who decided to use his own money to help people who couldn’t see, who wanted help, to see.

Just now, when I did a search to find out how many people he helped and how much it cost, Google (I know, I know) brought up CNN who called this a STUNT. Because you know, people helping people is always a stunt. Or the idjits at TechCrunch called him, ableist because they claim disabilities need no cure.

Now, I spent many years working with people with developmental disabilities and their families and I can tell you firsthand, using this narrative to complain about what Mr. Beast did is just dirty pool. No one is claiming people with disabilities are broken or need to find a cure, they just helped those WHO WANTED HELP.

That’s not ableist.

That’s not a stunt.

Helping people who are blind and want help is not calling them freaks. Nobody said disability is a bad word.

Apparently?

Oh, and I must add if we’re going to play this ridiculous ableism game that having a person with a developmental disability WRITE THIS is pretty damn ableist. It also feels pretty sneaky because if someone pushes back, calls them out, or has anything at all critical to say about this piece, they’re being mean to a person with a disability.

I’m more than happy to call it out – I don’t treat someone differently who has a disability from someone who does not have one because that is true equality.

That is what the real movement was and should be about.

Equality.

It’s so bizarre that there is even a debate to be had here.

Pretty awful indeed. And for what? For why? Clicks and taps?
