I find that REALLY hard to believe.
Even so, it's a reality different to the vast majority of disabled academics, at least,
the ones not prone to fanciful illusions, and certainly those attending my school; not
suprisingly either as academia is merely a microcosm of the larger social
environment.
But many oppressed people don't acknowledge their oppression. It's called taking
confort in your oppression, the psychological terms being, cognitive dissonance.
Have a nice day,
