    lol, ok so you also agree that there isn’t a viable alternative that conveys the same meaning and also acknowledges disabled people exist without being even more ableist or exclusive, thanks.

    unless you really want to die on this hill and explain to me where I implied that disabled people aren’t people, or that it is “unnatural” for me to show them respect with the questions I’ve just asked.

    or, you know, you could just actually make an attempt at answering them, since it’s such a simple problem to solve in your opinion.

      You don’t have to say “everybody can do X except people with Y.” It’s clunky and annoying and unnatural, when saying “Almost anybody can do X!” Or “Most people can learn to do X!”

      Pretty easy, pretty simple, costs zero effort.
