Me: there is an ongoing problem of a lack of empathy for disabled people within bike infrastructure advocacy circles.

Way too many bike people: deluge me with replies which directly and perfectly demonstrate that lack of empathy with its most common iteration: the assumption of what disability looks like, what disabled people need, and how the thing that’s exactly what they want must by all means be good for disabled people too.
