Hey, Hey. JJBA Fandom. Look At Me. Look At Me. Serious Talk Time.

Hey, hey. JJBA fandom. Look at me. Look at me. Serious talk time.

Before Steel Ball Run is animated. I want to make this CLEAR. As a disabled person myself

Do not call Johnny crippled. Do not make jokes at the expense of his disability. Do not make "funny" comments about how he has to move across the ground when fighting/not on Slow Dancer. Do not call him ANY slurs, period. Do not act like he is feeble or weak. He is a grown ass man. Do not treat his disability like a tragedy. The circumstances that LED UP to his disability is horrible. It's sad. But his disability itself is not a tragedy. Nobody's disability is a tragedy. Ableism is. Do not make "jokes" or insensitive comments about "well how does he use the bathroom? Does he get a boner and feel that?" He uses the bathroom like a human being. He's fictional but your asshole comments are real. Don't ask shit that you would be rightfully snapped at by a disabled person for.

Think about what you say before you fucking say it. A lot of disabled peers are reading what you put in the tags. I'm saying this all PREEMPTIVELY. Because I know it has happened in regards to Johnny before, and it WILL only get worse once the animated part comes out.

Treat Johnny as a human being. Not as inspirational. Not as tragic. Not as something other than what he is. A human being who lives with a disability. He is a fictional man. But he is depicted with a REAL LIFE disability. A disability those who may watch the show can see how you fucking think of them when you say shit like "Lol Johnny has a sit not a stand." Not funny. Fucking knock it off. And I know I sound AGGRESSIVE AS HELL but I don't think I should be entirely soft with my blows here. This is serious. Your ableist jokes are not funny. They never will be. And your true fucking colors shine through when you make those jokes. Be better.

If you clown on this post, I will fucking block you. I'm not taking blows like this and just letting it slide. I am disabled.

I SAID THE BEST WAY TO TELL A LOAF OF BREAD IS FINISHED IS TO STICK YOUR DICK IN IT.
