Why is it societies job to care for the disabled?

[Anonymous]

Society doesn't take care of regular people, why should the disabled get a free ride?

[NaultD]

We should take care of regular people but you got to start somewhere. We started social security and elder poverty dropped by 90%. Give a single fuck and we solve problems. Go fucking figure.

Also what's a disability? Asthma was a death sentence hundred years ago. Now you got a inhaler and you can provide for a family. I need glasses because I can't see pass my nose, should I just role over and die?

We are developing more and more tools that make disabilities pretty mundane obstacles. Like a 9ft tall person you can hire to clean the gutters or someone with a ladder. See where I'm getting at?

Also to get dark with it. They are people with rights as much as anyone else. What's the saying? "God created man, but Sam Colt made them equal."

[Asker]

Conservatives actively support killing and kidnapping brown people. They want to gut social security and end disability programs as well, and that's the majority of America

[darkcloud1945]

I CALL BULLSHIT!. Who, where, and when was this activity supported by conservatives, published, or quoted from? The world wants to know who said it and published it, and when it was said or published

[msc545]

Well, yes, the thing is that brown and black people also look different, and since they look different, that must mean they are different. If they are different, well, we all know how bad different people can be. Right?

[darkcloud1945]

@msc545 What the fuck are you talking about? Black and Brown look different, so do White people too they come in different shades from almost black to mayonnaise white, and there are bad and good, whatever color or shade you are, go on, keep on shoveling shit against the tide, but then you are for the murder of the disabled, and from what you are saying you are for the murder of black and brown people too. Right?

[darkcloud1945]

What would be your answer to the question you asked if you were one of the DISABLED getting what you call a free ride to keep you alive? Hey, hey, everybody handicapped people get a free ride because they are handicapped through no action of their own. Should they be helped, or what is to be done? The person who is afraid to put their name or handle on their question wants to know

[Asker]

Trump says disabled people should die

[darkcloud1945]

What a load of BULLSHIT! Where and when did he say that, if he said that, there would be an outcry in the hundreds of millions? So far, things are quiet. The left has not said shit, they would be out for blood, overrunning the Whitehouse

[msc545]

Is he included in that thought? Because he actually should be. I consider people with mental disorders to be disabled even if their mental disorders extend to wanting to kill the rest of us.

[msc545]

Yeah, Dark Cloud, you're right. Just because he's been committing premeditated murder doesn't mean that we shouldn't be kind to him.

[darkcloud1945]

@msc545 YEAH @msc545 Not kind to them, like you suggest, but put them where they can not hurt or kill, and possibly help them in a meaningful way, but help has been stopped years ago by closing mental health facilities to save money by the Government. Now it is your turn to blame republicans, per usual!

[msc545]

Reagan did that. He was a Republican, of course. Connect the dots.

[darkcloud1945]

@msc545 It leads directly to THE AMREICA LAST DEMOCRATIC COMMUNIST PARTY OF AMERICA

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

Society doesn’t want to be objectively cruel to a group of people who carry an intrinsic value so that’s probably why. Remember kids, if you live long enough you, too, will become disabled.

[Asker]

I mean this sites attitude towards trans people is objectively cruel

[Asker]

People aren't just against helping them, the want to arrest and kill healthcare professionals and scientists who help and study trans conditions

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

I’m not sure why you want to discuss trans people as they don’t qualify as disabled, but yeah a majority conservative website filled with anti-LGBTQ+ propaganda is going to buy into the specifically anti-trans propaganda that the republicans have been funneling into any and all available media sources.

[beenherebefore]

Well, they do not have the same opportunities as regular people due to their disabilities, they already have it tough enough in life so I think it's fair they get those benefits.

[Asker]

Kids born into poverty don't have the same opportunity, and most people on this site is against social safety nets for them.

[beenherebefore]

They may not be born with the same opportunities but they have the advantage of going to school and learn. Also they have two arms and legs and are physically able to go to work.

[Asker]

Poorer areas have worse schools, that in it of it's self is a disadvantage. Disabled people go to school and learn too.

There's disabled people with two arms and two legs.

[beenherebefore]

Yea but they are disabled meaning they're not able to function like a normal person.

[Asker]

Should we cut all programs that help non disabled people?

[beenherebefore]

Absolutely not!

[Asker]

But poor people don't need the help, they can pick themselves up by the bootstraps

[msc545]

If they could, don't you think they would?

[Anonymous]

That's why it's called a "society" you dumb shit. The stronger and able bodied help the less strong or "dis" abled. Let's say your child were born with a severe disability that required more care than you or your family good provide, and cost more than you could afford. Should you just kill it? Tell me who you voted for without telling me who you voted for. God damn.

[Asker]

Then why do many people here make fun of the disabled and dog whistle racism?

[Opinion Owner]

Why do I give a shit about that? I answered your post, and the answer is "because that's what a worthwhile society DOES". You evaded my question.

[exitseven]

disabled people did not ask to be disabled they were either born that way of had some kind on accident or disease. We should cut them a break.

[Asker]

Regular people didn't ask to be born, why should they not get breaks either?

There's people who suffered from accidents or things not their fault and end up in poverty and we demonize them, why not demonize disabled people too?

[DrPepper12]

Valid question despite the 💩 your gonna get just for asking.

Are you arguing for more egalitarianism?

[Asker]

No I rather the weak in society either get repurposed for useful menial tasks suitable for their physical ability and limited mental capacity, if they have none, leave them on top of a mountain like the Spartans, if they pick themselves up by yh bootstraps and survive, great, if not, we save resources on not having to care for them

[Anonymous]

Because society saw Hitler and viewed him as bad... if you have this view then you are of the same cloth

[DavyJ]

What an asinine question

[Asker]

What an asinine reply
