Nobody is obligated to talk only about the crew deaths. Arguably it's sanctimonious and tacky to make a big show of "respect" for strangers who died. (Or else you had better publicly mourn everybody else who died from less newsworthy causes.) Meanwhile somebody alive shared a personal experience of being disabled, while making a fairly minor point, and you kind of shat on them.
I'm not sure we read the same thread here. I only brought up the casualties in response to the statement that if you aren't focused on the shipping delay here, you're callous and don't care about the disabled. Being not particularly well off on that front myself, I found that to be an unreasonable and selfish comment, one that attempted to hijack a tragedy to further someone's unrelated agenda. I would fully accept that I could have read into it something that was not there, had it not been for the followup "ableism" comment immediately afterward.
If they had approached from a different angle, something like "Remember that this can have knock on effects, my sister is waiting on her insulin delivery and after a particularly rough week a missed delivery could be fatal" it wouldn't have ruffled feathers. Instead it was phrased such that anyone who hadn't considered that concept was morally deficient. You claim to be upset by my "sanctimonious" behavior and yet view the post I responded to as just "sharing a personal experience"?
