    How is being disabled the same as being queer?

    And nowhere did I say they are not bigots. They are. There are many bigots, most of which keep it to themselves.

    Then there are bigoted loudmouths, who have a history of being gay.

    Nothing from that even remotely suggests that queer people are the source of their own opression.

      Both being disabled and being queer are inherent, immutable traits that people can claim are on a spectrum and “everyone is a little bit” either of them.

      Yet somehow ableists aren’t all disabled. But, according to you all homophobes are queer. So yes, that does mean that queer people are the source of their own oppression. Because only queer people are oppressing queer people by your own claim.

        Did you not read my post or do you like putting words in my mouth?

        I explicitly said something else than what you wrote, so have a good one and enjoy yourself, I’m out.

          Did you not read my post or do you like putting words in my mouth?

          I did indeed read both this and other posts.

          You:

          How is being disabled the same as being queer?

          Me:

          Both being disabled and being queer are inherent, immutable traits that people can claim are on a spectrum and “everyone is a little bit” either of them.

          You earlier:

          I would say that everyone is a little big queer, and the more people deny it, specially going overboard, that means they are scared of it.

          Me:

          But, according to you all homophobes are queer. So yes, that does mean that queer people are the source of their own oppression. Because only queer people are oppressing queer people by your own claim.

          Now you:

          I explicitly said something else than what you wrote,

          Seems like you explicitly said what I responded to.
