A couple of people I follow have brought this up before, but I feel like it needs repeating because it's so fascinating to a baffling degree:
You never hear the media talk about disabled people.
You never see them report on their physical challenges, their mental state as the world pushes down on them, or on healthcare and resources being put more and more out of reach for them. The most you may hear is autism be brought up as a scapegoat or as a performative victimization describing them as "helpless."
You do however hear everything I just said be reported on with everyone else, be it white men, women, children, white men, and even some marginalized groups if they feel like it. Never disabled people though.
Quite literally eugenics is happening in the background of life, and very few people actually care.
