Of all the things you could reasonably criticize the US over, wheelchair accessibility ain't one of them. Especially compared to Europe.

On the other hand, disallowin wheelchair ramps because there are not mentioned in the Bible would be a very American move.

A very southern American move

obligatory mention that it's not "The South," but ~30 minutes outside of any metro area in the US.

Americans are not the caricatures of evil and malice you seem to think we are.

You are currently debating whether hospitals can let women die instead of performing abortions

I thought the idea was that Republicans are actively working on destroying what has been working fine and is benefitting lots of people, not just on preventing more progress.

Are you referring to something specific?

[–] Stovetop@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Abortion rights, voting rights, gay marriage, privacy, trans rights, immigration, housing, the economy, net neutrality, take your pick.

The topic at hand is wheelchair accessibility, though.

[–] jalda@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

Nope. The topic at hand is free ice-ceam. A topic that you, as a rational adult, can understand that is 100% literal and not at hyperbolic example to make a point about general trends and not a single specific item.
