If it gets even harder, they really need to just legalise assisted suicide. Thousands of disabled people have already died due to their benefits being wrongfully stopped at reassessment. It's already too hard. Just let us have a peaceful exit instead of starving an neglecting us to death.

I didn't subjugate any of those countries, nor did the average disabled person, why do we deserve to be subjugated even more than we are?

    I don't see why people should be punished for what their ancestors did. Also just because you live in a country doesn't mean they're your ancestors. All my parents/grandparents were immigrants here. Whose ancestors am I being punished for? And to link this to disability benefits is just wild. Why should I, a disabled person descended from impoverished immigrants be subjected to punishment because hundreds of years ago rich, white able bodied people plundered foreign lands?
