MNHQ - are they disabilist?

286 replies

Sixweekstowait · 09/06/2016 20:36

Having had a thread deleted with no communication with me until I asked ( but then I'm disabled and so invisible) , having read on the second class citizen thread of examples of disabilist language which HQ defend, I am beginning to think they are. I now think they were really really wrong to delete my thread and that they have NO IDEA about the everyday discrimination that people with disabilities face in even trying to travel to work, care even less and I would like to know how many of their staff are disabled?

Samcro if you want to say something to me, address me. I haven't been goady. I've had a differing opinion.

I've also been accused of saying things on this thread that I categorically didn't say.

And, because I don't think it's very clear; I haven't called anyone a name.

ooooh well done MNHQ very quick.

Jasonandyawegunorts · 10/06/2016 12:00

Sad Oh... okay.

The anti ADHD thread is back.

Probably a Spambot.

Jasonandyawegunorts · 10/06/2016 11:53

is it large enough to share?

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 10/06/2016 11:52

Just bought a large bar of chocolate.

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 10/06/2016 11:48

I mean..don't mess with me.

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 10/06/2016 11:48

True..usually i manage it.

Plus I just revealed my weakness and will now be called a twat more Grin

I am normally hard as a hard bastard honest everyone.

Am just not. My colleagues laughed for years because a patient said I was aggressive.

Jasonandyawegunorts · 10/06/2016 11:46

Good becuase i don't give pity, i give the straight up truth.Grin

Pagwatch · 10/06/2016 11:46

Seriously, I think measuring how you are viewed by people sticking up for you is not a good idea.

For one thing - this happens

Fanj - I think you are being completely insensitive
Pag - your attitude is crap
Random poster - that's an awful point of view

Poster - but I think that and you are being fucking rude and a bully Fanjo you twat.

Pag - leave Fanj alone
Random poster - you should apologise

Poster - fucking SN brigade.....

Jasonandyawegunorts · 10/06/2016 11:45

i think a cage might not be such a bad idea I know My mum would have liked on when i was younger.

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 10/06/2016 11:44

Dammit I don't want a break now. You are all lovely . And I wasn't aiming for a pity party with my flounce. I was upset BlushFlowers

MrsJayy · 10/06/2016 11:43

Sorry that was a tangent Blush

Pagwatch · 10/06/2016 11:42

Ahhh, that makes sense Fanjo

TBH if someone calls me a fucking twat I just assume I posted something quite good. I have a self preservation and thoroughly deluded posting approach

Grin
MrsJayy · 10/06/2016 11:42

Jesus wept ADHD children why is that allowed let's just put folk in cages so we can poke them for entertainment those ADHD people and their funny ways

Samcro · 10/06/2016 11:40

at least you have a child. today I was told I didnt lol

Jasonandyawegunorts · 10/06/2016 11:40

FWIW fanjo, i missed the thread you are tlaking about but i do like your posts. You tend to hold your ground and be the voice of reason, which isn't easy with some of the goady as fuck threads on here.

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 10/06/2016 11:39

A personal and sensitive thread not a flame war. If you see it you will see what I mean lol

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 10/06/2016 11:39

Thanks pag. I guess i do need it.
I just assume if no one objects to me being called a twat everyone must think it. A thread I posted on earlier today has made me a bit sensitive too I think. And am sick of being told I always do stuff and all that SN brigade type nonsense.

God this is like a therapy session sorry.

A break is needed for a wee while anyway.

Samcro · 10/06/2016 11:37

fanjo don't feel down. tbh I think you have been great, you have stood your ground even whilst being goaded and that is not easy.
have someCake

Pagwatch · 10/06/2016 11:32

That fucking ADHD thread.

DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND FUCK OFF DOUCHEBAG

Pagwatch · 10/06/2016 11:31

Fanjo

I think you should just post as you feel. I'm on a lot of the same threads as you and we are often arguing the same point so I don't see you as angrier than me or less supportive across the board.
I post as I feel and was called a hyena and a bully and various other things. None of us are one thing.
I don't tend to wade in a defend people, I don't assume they need it but I do report. I am probably guilty of focusing too much on the debate.

I would not have felt the need to defend you against Walter because it did not look for a moment like you needed it.

Jasonandyawegunorts · 10/06/2016 11:25

To be absolutely fair to MNHQ I've found them to be extremely fair and understanding to me, and more so than they probably should have.

I reported that thread too Somerville.
