If you had included the second sentence of your Edit in your first response I don't think you would have received a single downvote.
I left my downvote there because of the second to last sentence of the Edit. Apparently you think everyone should know about every single feature in Windows because it might be there for someone who is disabled, and blame them for not being aware.
What irks me is that this opinions are always from abled bodied white dudes from The Gamers™ demographic that feel the need to act as if someone having a nice thing that might slightly inconveniences their gaming sesh once is somehow an alien feature meant to hurt them. The absolute lack of empathy is palpable through the screen.
No, it is meme about people finding the unexpected popup they don't understand about something they are not aware of to be annoying. There are a lot of options in windows that don't have anything to do with disabilities that have similar popups which are also unexpected and annoying, this one just happens a lot for certain types of games.
Doubling down by making it about race too is comical. Do you think non-white people in the same situation don't find the meme relatable?
You know what they say, not all white men, but somehow always a white men.
LoL
Sir, this is a meme board. I was on my commute. I have no accountability to randos on the internet.
Then maybe just stop being an asshole?
Do you think insulting people for not being aware of something, when the punchline for a meme is how people aren't aware of the thing, is how meme boards are supposed to work?
I have not insulted anyone, I used the term “ignorant ableism” and “rando” in a general sense, not addressed to anyone in particular, if you feel alluded that's on you not on me. On the contrary, I have been directly called “asshole” and “condescending” already for making an off the cuff comment not directed at anyone in particular because I was sitting in traffic and didn't have time to type a full paragraph to appease the sensibilities of, as of then, completely unknown people who somehow feel personally attacked by the fact that people with disabilities exist.
Maybe you shouldn't throw insults around while in traffic and then escalate to more insults when people point it out.
My comment was: People with disabilities exist.
Your take: I'm being personally insulted.
