That’s kind of the real takeaway. Circus animals aren’t that impressive if they’re not real animals and if they are, they’re more than likely abused. Conclusion: we have a lot cooler shit than animal based circus acts for entertainment, and we should move on from it.

Fr. Apply this to any other condition and it sounds terrible. “If people need an ASL translator to go to a concert, I’d rather they didn’t go at all”.

And something like a safe space isn’t intrusive at all. Like if you don’t need a safe space or anything, how does it affect you. If you don’t think mental health is a real problem than a safe space is gonna be the last place you should be. Nobodies forcing you to experience the concert any differently. So weird

They probably weren’t going and that’s why this guy went out of his way to make it more accessible to his own fans so they can enjoy it too. It’s not that they’re demanding anything this is just an artist doing something nice to be accommodating and let people enjoy a concert when they might have had a hard time without accommodation.

Why do you not want them to go? Does it negatively affect you at all? I’m so confused why you would say that lol

Yeah I guess orphancrushingmachine is more about how people celebrate fixing systemic problems with short term or case-specific solutions instead of fixing the system itself, which isn’t quite this.

It still feels similar because while they are decriminalizing it, they aren’t really fixing the system of oppression because it’s still illegal.

There is a sub for exactly this type of story. Good news that’s only happening because something was really fucked up in the first place. I can’t remember the name rn lol but I will try to find it.

Edit: it was r/orphancrushingmachine
