    Which is why the very idea of “unskilled labour” is ableist.

    they don’t exactly call it capable labor or anything.

    They call it unskilled labor for a reason. It’s generally not complicated and not very hard.

    Naturally being disabled makes things harder, but idk what you want me to do about that one. People with physical disabilities and the capability of doing labor don’t generally go together.

      And yet we’re given no other means to ensure our survival other than to try to labour for a chance to earn a living.
