I am going to try to say this as polite as possible. You should never compare people's disabilities, especially in an attempt to invalidate them. No one has insulted disabled artists, however you are being offensive. I see you have been led astray by the second person, but this is just ... off-putting. Yes there are people in wheelchairs who can work, and those who can't. The first group does not make the second group lazy. Some disabled people will have certain activities they cannot do and no amount of individual practice/hard work/effort will change it. Being a member of a group does not exclude them from being offensive (women can be misogynists, etc.). The second person is literally using their status as a disabled person to put down other disabled people, I mean wtf.
Society thinks everyone is able-bodied. Until a machine is made so I can draw directly with my mind, creating art is a pipe dream. I need something that doesn't require any type of force, so no pencils, pens, mice, etc. I always associate the word "accessible" with disabled people so this meme was funny to me.
My friend, how did you make this comment without any type of force? is it a speech to text thing? If so, it might be possible for you to do art of some kind.
😮💨 Sorry but I am not looking for suggestions that I have to explain why I'm too disabled for it to work. Speech to text will not work.
in that case i hope you can forgive me for prying about your condition. I won't push further and i'm sorry if i came across rude. i hope you have a fantastic day.
I mean, pen plotters allow you to draw anything even if you can only type and they are definitely used to make some beautiful art. And if you can't afford that, you can probably create algorithmic art on the device you are reading this comment from!
Thanks for the suggestion, but after looking into this it would not work out for my disabilities.
