My Politics

Just a little idea of where I’m coming from.

All empires are bad, whether they project inwards or outwards and whether they are rivals or allies with other empires.

If your revolution doesn’t include severely impaired people (who cannot work) as subjects of liberation. Then it is building hierarchy over us.

    The first. Before COVID infection I was a healthy young person doing 30 hours of sports a week, since getting COVID I’ve been unable to leave my bed suffering from dozens of symptoms vomiting every day getting loads of infections because apparently my immune system called quits.

    And just to be clear. While I initially faced disbelief from loads of doctors. I eventually found one specialised in long COVID who confirmed this and then I was confirmed when I had to go through the 1000 loops of hell to get disability income. So I’m not pulling this out of my arse.

    (And frankly the “Actually it’s probably just stress” is the sort of minimising and harmful prejudicial attitude that’s hurting advocacy efforts and making it hard for long COVID to be taken seriously by the general public.)
