@valeriesvoice: bringing this back since this month marks the 33rd anniversary of the ADA being passed and there is still a LOT to be done in terms of educating the general public on what it does and doesn’t do. it was a huge step forward and a lifechanging piece of legislature, but it’s not the end-all be-all people think it is #disability #disabled #ableism #disabilityawareness

Yeah as someone who works at a gas station alone I'm not allowed to pump gas for people it would take me away from the counter too long

I was told by my university that "code of conduct matters more than the ADA", especially for neurodivergent people

the Ada is truly less than the bare minimum and most people don't realize that.

It still has too many loopholes but McKay and Channel Master would likely be considered superseded by the 2008 ADA amendments.

Yep. And how schools and employers can deny accommodations if deemed “unreasonable”

when I asked if my IEP goes to college I was told that I'm supposed to get over my disability and no my job won't accommodate and I'm TAH for asking

Why the fuck would you even refuse service to disable people, like what the fuck is so hard about giving service to someone in a wheelchair

Yup. The ADA has SO MANY loopholes that are exploited, yet the non-disabled just cry "lawsuit" as if it's THAT simple. 🤦‍♀️🙄

Wow yeah we need an ADA 2. Still can't get over the MTA saying in 2022 that they'd make 95% of stations accessible by 2055. The hell?

people seriously need to TALK TO PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES people think that when you're disabled that the whole world does everything for you

I wonder of the public perception of it being all powerful was a purposeful propaganda thing to stop people from trying to get better protections

truth! which is why they will deny SSD because you can "work" elsewhere even if it means less pay and worse conditions because on paper you can work

I mean it’s the US. The #1 most bigoted country on earth. The ADA exists so they can claim they support disabled people.
