When you& #39;re talking about specifically denying Deaf people access to information put out by our government... that IS a fight about accessibility.
Nobody should be lied to by the government, but that& #39;s a different discussion. Right here, right now, we are being lied to. https://twitter.com/WeAreNIM/status/1254531622835113985">https://twitter.com/WeAreNIM/...

Deaf people - like everyone - deserve full access to that information that the government is putting out. Lies included.
"Why?"
Because access to information means access to *all* information. Good, bad, silly, informative, entertaining, and yes, even inaccurate.

I really don& #39;t like calling specific individuals out unless they& #39;re doing a few specific things and doubling down on them.
But this person is making me feel um.. I don& #39;t know the right term, but I am uncomfortable. And doubting my interpretation here even tho it seems clear

This is the second time I& #39;ve seen them & the second time they& #39;ve insisted I "revile" them when I don& #39;t know who they are.

The first time I ever saw this account they commented on my post to say they were shocked I haven& #39;t blocked them. I asked why & they got angry

Well, maybe not angry. But upset. They were upset I couldn& #39;t remember an interaction I guess I had with them in the past? I searched for tweets with both our @ s and this was the first interaction we had. I asked about that. They said that it was on an old account over a year ago
I asked what account so I could search and get context, but they never told me what account. Just said they were disappointed that it meant "so much more" to them than it did to me.
I feel bad I can& #39;t remember. I wish I could.

But then this post I was just scrolling through Twitter and saw what... clearly looks like arguing that deaf people shouldn& #39;t have access to White House covid briefings... right?? So I replied explaining why this accessibility matters...
I got around to replying to their reply to me today and... idk now they keep telling me I hate them. I didn& #39;t think I did, I don& #39;t know who they are. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ" title="Pensive face" aria-label="Emoji: Pensive face">
I had not been intending to quote tweet, and maybe it was wrong. But they weren& #39;t listening to me about why accessibility to information is important REGARDLESS of the information. They were doubling down instead. I know people don& #39;t like to believe me on stuff.
And they think I have some personal vendetta against them, so sure, of course they wouldn& #39;t believe me. Maybe someone else? I quote tweet explaining to everyone why I believe accessibility matters. Maybe someone else can explain it better than me. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ" title="Pensive face" aria-label="Emoji: Pensive face">
But idk, maybe I& #39;m confused.
I mean I am confused. I& #39;m very confused.
