Its complicated. But what's more appalling is that its 2024 and we as a specie cannot work together. I don't what the end goal of an individual life/society/humans is, but if we want people to function well and add value to their communities then they have to be stop being mean to people for things that don't matter like stuttering or a different color. Its a natural animal instinct to outcast people, but are we just another animal? Are we not civil and conscious beings? What I want is for people to drive the point that its okay to stutter unless it really matters(like you are a commentator and a stuttering commentator would miss the moment?). Its 2024, we have so many ways to communicate, write on a piece of paper, use text to speech whatever. I want people to normalize these especially in corporate setting. What's more appalling is things like LGHDTV are "celebrated" and things like stuttering are not even "normalized". This problem with society goes beyond just stuttering. I don't think my life is going to be any better if I stopped stuttering. That's not even the real issue. The real issue is as I said, I and many are afraid to show our stutter in public. This society ingrains in us that making mistakes is bad, so we are scared to death to make mistakes in public. But that's really stupid. A mistake like this doesn't matter. Plus there are ways to overcome this disability like using Text to Speech. We as a society should work together and cover each other's weakness and leverage each other's strength. But the opposite is happening. Imagine if a poor eyesight was ridiculed, you were made fun for wearing spectacles. Even your parents did. Then you would definitely avoid wearing it and even avoid situations where you have to read from afar. Stuttering is a disability which is not very impactful just like a poor eyesight. But this society has not yet normalized this disability. Maybe the onus is on our community as well. We should all start stuttering freely to get it normalized.
