Why Has the Left Deprioritized COVID?
by Raia Small

#LeftistsForPrecautions

"We’ve seen the triumph of a capitalist ideology that tells us that if we get sick, we should continue to work, and if we die or become disabled, it’s our own fault. To challenge the ruling class who have made record profits over the last two years and the political parties who manage affairs for them, we need to organize collective action that builds bridges"

"Not only have [experts] failed [to convey truth and give guidance] they have engaged in an active disinformation campaign dedicated to making the pandemic “disappear”. This has not been the result of a classic caricature of conspiracy... What we’re actually witnessing is the quiet collusion of class interest.

"Shifting the focus from the individual to the many oppressive forces against us is at the heart of disability justice, an ongoing activist legacy that we have at our disposal for our collective survival."

"Practice disability justice however you can, whatever chance you get. This is our collective lifeline, whether you’re disabled or not."

a thread on ableism in the UK queer community from activist https://twitter.com/SaliWho

"Due to abandonment during the AIDS crisis, queer activists perfected harm reduction.

If you can give out condoms, you can give out masks at the door with a flyer explaining why they’re vital for survival and solidarity.

You can open windows. Get an air filter. Meet outside."
