Thinking about how certain people are expected to suffer at least a little bit, work at least a little bit extra, be frustrated at least a little bit, just so everyone else can ignore them comfortably.
I think everyone would benefit from watching this Alt-Right playbook (or read the transcript, also in the link), just to keep it in mind. What's "not so bad" that I'm expecting other people to shoulder so I don't have to think about it?
y'know what? Fair! just because i struggle with typing quirks or sarcasm doesnt mean its "normal" or that whats normal is right.
Exactly! The problem is that it's so normalized for certain people to just deal with an extra burden and we don't even notice, even when we're the ones burdened
