Well they shouldn’t blatantly lie to stop disabled people from receiving help if they don’t want to be despised. The lies they told on my form contributed to my benefits being stopped, hence the dire straits I’m in now.

Hey you’re leaving out the part where they force disabled people to come into an office to be called liars and malingerers to their face and then deny it if they get a complaint.
I genuinely don’t get the people who take this kind of job, especially as IIRC they’re supposed to be trained for real jobs like nursing.
It doesn’t surprise me, since becoming disabled I’ve learnt just how utterly despised we are, people genuinely believe we’re just lazily living off other peoples’ money while having a great time, and they resent having to get up and go to work each day to pay for us.
This is by design.
yes, but I don’t understand what the end goal is. If they just want rid of us, they could legalise assisted suicide. For some reason they’re trying to turn everyone against us, keep us alive and starve us at the same time.
They want us visibly suffering, as a reminder to others to “work hard” or whatever.
That is probably it.
This is it right here. Same goes for how the unhoused are treated.
My so-so understanding it is Capitalism is, literally, mathematically, exploitation. Exploitation of humans comes through the malicious exaggeration of all natural differences in things so as to divide and conquer. Within the captive population, it doesn’t really want to exterminate (that’s for the uncontrolled outsider), because it’s happy with the mechanism of division that it understands, and it fears novelty.
It needs “wretches”, the labour of their suffering is a threat to other workers, who it tries to make complicit through endless propaganda. Turning the people against themselves makes them into their own oppressors and undermines their ability to understand themselves as a class.
Since those with disabilities are more complicated to exploit, they’re less profitable. And since care for others is so innate to humanity (and I would say basic to Life), turning the people against those in greater need is an even greater distortion - “from each according to their needs, to each according to their ability”.
Alienation, it’s always the benefits claimants, the Looney left, the black youth, the lazy zoomers, the gender ideology, the Pakistanis, the economic migrants
It’s never the fault of the billionaire
I feel like I need a T-shirt with this printed on it. Then again, maybe I don’t want people looking at me that much.
Could we guerilla a billboard or something?
Just because they’re monsters doesn’t mean they want to look like monsters. Their plan may be thwarted by public unrest. Moreover, I guess plenty of interviewers go into the job with starry-eyed dreams of actually helping people, then run into rules and policy; but know if they quit, they are closer to experiencing some of the same problems you do.
Considering how the assessors go out of their way to deny people, I can’t imagine how they’d start wanting to help people. For instance when explaining my vision loss to an assessor and how it makes it difficult for me to do things like cross the road safely, she said that I could just walk around constantly rotating my head in a circle to get a full range of vision, so the vision loss is no excuse for needing extra help. She also wrote on my form that I can see perfectly with glasses. After I had clearly explained to her that glasses do not restore missing vision. They are all just evil liars and frauds.
“Go in” I meant as fresh hires.
