  • I do believe that is the point of the post; however, it also implies that the kind of person it describes does not understand that they are actually engaging in bullying behaviours.

    Ableism is so entrenched in society that “teasing” (thought of as playful, but is actually harmful) people for being a little different is not seen as anything to bat an eye at. Media upholds the normalization of this kind of ableism through shaming these traits in the form of “jokes” — meaning that when people in turn do it to others, they often believe themselves to be engaging in funny banter. When it is actually creating an environment that others autistic and neurodivergent people. Ie, upholding systemic ableism. All without their knowledge.

    The point of a post such as this is partially for autistic people to commiserate, but also hopefully for a few people to stop and think about their own behaviour. If they are the kind of person who wishes to be inclusive to autistic people, seeing this might make them realize how they do unconsciously bully autistic people when they denigrate people with these traits. And hopefully they will stop, though it takes time to deconstruct and unlearn this kind of behaviour.


  • Upholding the hegemony of neurotypicality as the “acceptable” way to be, and the encouraging of neurodiverse people to mask their (fine, unharmful) behaviours. Masking which actively harms them.

    All this does is promote ongoing ableism. I beg that you read something about the experiences of autistic people and come to understand how marginalized and harmed they are by this continual shaming of these traits. Traits that are not harmful, or even uncommon. They’re just different, and less normalized.









  • Install Stylus > Write New Style > Import and then copy/paste this in. Keep in mind that I removed a lot of my specific tweaks for sites I use, because that’s PII. You will encounter many more weird issues on random sites than you do with DarkReader, but if you’re used to working with userCSS you’ll probably have no issues fixing those. The way this essentially works is by inverting your entire browser screen, then rotating the hue so the colours of website themes aren’t weird, then it inverts images back to normal. I’m sure there is a way to do this without inverting the images in the first place, but it would involve one hell of a lot more code than this. I wrote this originally in about 3 minutes.

    html, iframe {
        filter: invert(1) hue-rotate(180deg);
    }
    
    img, div[background-image], div[style*="background-image"], video  {
        filter: invert(1) hue-rotate(180deg);
    }
    
    @-moz-document domain("lemmy.ml"), domain("ultimate-guitar.com"), domain("open.spotify.com"), domain("discord.com"), domain("localhost") {
    /* Exemptions for sites that already have a dark mode */
    
    html, iframe {
        filter: none;
    }
    
    img, div[background-image], div[style*="background-image"], video  {
        filter: none;
    }
    }
    
    @-moz-document domain("youtube.com") {
    #movie_player {
        filter: invert(1) hue-rotate(180deg);
    }
    
    video {
        filter: none;
    }
    }
    
    @-moz-document url-prefix("https://www.google.com/maps") {
    div[aria-label="Street View"] canvas, div[aria-label="Photo"] canvas, button[data-photo-index] {
        filter: invert(1) hue-rotate(180deg);
    }
    
    div[role="img"] {
        filter: none;
    }
    }

    I made my own with Stylus. At its simplest it’s 2 lines of CSS which pales in comparison to what Dark Reader is going with, and then I have one section for exempted websites, and two sections for websites I use a lot that needed specific small fixes. It uses basically no resources, and doesn’t slow anything down.

    The one downside is that because it uses CSS filters, some colors become less brilliant. This is a known flaw with how CSS calculates colors for hue-rotate.

    Pasted in a comment below.

    Also explains that the social housing residents were offered to purchase their units at below-market rates and 80% of them took the offer, and that social housing was built as part of the project despite some buildings having been taken down. This is not your average “gentrification,” which is when poor people are pushed out of a place either through literal eviction so that their homes can be redeveloped into luxury units, or via price increases they can’t bear due to property value increases.

    Making a place nicer for people to live can be gentrifying, and often is, but in this case it looks like measures were taken to ensure that it didn’t happen.
