Hey @Natalie20881698, is this insta account mocking a disabled woman yours? Cos it’s fucking abhorrent and disgraceful. Pretty obvious who is being attacked to anyone who has spent a minute engaging with the Australian disability community. Nasty, mean bullying

I don’t care about your personal beefs and factions. I will absolutely call this shit out

We see what you did

Anyway, I did say last month I wasn’t going to sit back and watch this occur https://twitter.com/asher_wolf/status/1310344880716046336

Delete the Instagram account as well.

If you abuse, harass, bully, menace, stalk or mock disabled ppl, expect me

Actually pretty angry right now. How dare anyone call themselves a “disability advocate” or “disability activist” and have someone harassing and bullying other disabled people as a friend. You’re a disgrace

You want to use friends as proxies to harass a woman with disability? I will bring a hoard for them and then you as well if you don’t stop. We’ve all been thru our own personal hell with disabilities. How dare you do this to someone in our community

Get that Natalie’s your biggest fan and friend @_Nic_Lee, but repurposing @carlyfindlay’s “fucking fabulous” tagline as “ducking fabulous” and dressing up a toy duck to mock her will not be excused. Aware of the history of animosity. Really pathetic you’re trying to excuse this

Peta, I’m aware you’re besties with a person who has a beef with Carly. Stop trying to excuse and minimise this horrible behaviour. It reflects badly on you

I hate that these ppl are acting like this. It’s disgraceful. We have so many bigger issues to deal with. I am so pissed off by this shit

“Oh noes, this person just randomly remixed Carly’s tagline and is dressing up a toy duck in outrageous outfits just like Carly posts on twitter, it’s random, not an attack.” Oh fuck off

You should be ashamed of yourselves

Even if, for a minute, you thought ooops, you innocently did something that had hurt or offended someone in the disability community, the right thing to do would be STOP DOING IT. But instead, you have your mates out on twitter making excuses for you

Funny how your supposed “innocent” new found hobby in lockdown seems to target a woman with disabilities your Twitter friends have been in a bitter row with. Coincidence, hey? Do you think we were born yesterday

Right now the only this you should be doing is deleting that content and apologising. And if you tried to excuse that disgusting behaviour, you should publicly apologise as well

Did you know s.474.17 makes it a federal criminal offence to menace, harass or offend? I hope @carlyfindlay reports you

Expect me to be livid about this for a long time to come

And I’m aware some of those who are involved in this bullying are nominating themselves for leadership roles within Aus. disability NFPs. Let me just say: any organisation that would grant them a leadership role is not an org I want to be involved in

And if you’re a comrade or ally, join me and call out lateral abuse, harassment and violence in the disability community every time you spot it

Instagram account now deleted

Anyway, glad to see Natalie’s realised what hurt she caused and has deleted the Instagram account. Hope she moves onto a hobby that’s less painful for everyone

Anyone experiencing ongoing bullying in the disability community: Brodie’s Law makes serious bullying a criminal offence by extending the application of the stalking provisions in the Crimes Act 1958 to include behaviour that involves serious bullying. Report it

C.W. mental health, suicide, suicide threats.

HEY @PWDAustralia come get your board member, Sam Connor. She’s claiming I may have caused someone to suicide by calling out bullying. This is defamation. I will be lodging a formal complaint

Formal complaint lodged to @PWDAustralia about the behaviour of their board member and a board member nominee

How many complaints were previously raised by other people, @PWDAustralia? A dozen? Two dozen? And there’s board members found in breach of the code of conduct who still remain on the board? What’s the reform mechanism? https://mailchi.mp/5b04af39fc66/qcnnef5tfj?e=abd5c1a5a8
