We live in the victim era, where everyone wants to feel offended in order to throw a tantrum. A couple days ago someone asked on this sub if saying “did I stutter?” was offensive. Ofcourse I didn’t buy that shit. That said, your case is totally different. No one would make fun of a guy sitting on a wheelchair while in front of him, then why should you have accepted that “joke”? He made fun of you, that’s not “just a joke”. I find ridicolous that stuttering isn’t recognised as a disability. This makes me fucking mad. We are at the bottom of the disability pyramid, everyone shits on us. We got laughed at because “come on you can talk, you just have to harder”. What the **fuck** does that mean? You had the courage to stand up for yourself and I thank you for it, because somehow you stood up for all of us. A paid drink could not pay back the feeling of being stepped upon emotionally. Again, I don’t like playing the victim. I hate victim culture, but this has nothing to do with it. That was just rude, but that kind of rudeness that comes from ignorance and unawareness. This only makes things worst
