> When he asked why he was non-inclusive, Olohan was told that he had shown favouritism towards high-performing employees and that he was “ableist” for commenting on other employees’ “walking pace.”

Wait, what...?



You know how it is.

"Not merely the validity of experience, but the very existence of external reality was tacitly denied by their philosophy. The heresy of heresies was common sense."


I hope anti-ableists don't pick the best heart doctor, lawyer or investment banker for themselves, that would be ableism. When they have kids, they should not select the best teachers because that would discriminate against the less able teachers.


There's some serious irony in a bunch of intellectually high-functioning people with some of the best salaries in the world embroiled in workplace politics over ableist language.
