Apartheid was a social system in South Africa where good jobs and education were reserved exclusively for white people. This created a society where being born with the wrong skin tone destined you for a life of hard labor, poverty, segregation and oppression on so many levels. Even though in America the segregation of society is done on socio-economic levels and is a lot more subtle, there exists the same kind of problem where being born into the wrong demographic damns you to suffer. Certain zip codes do not get the same amount of funding in schools which sets the population up for failure. Some communities run a school to prison pipeline where teenagers are arrested and imprisoned for decades so the regime can use them for forced prison labor. Being born in the wrong zip code, demographic, or on a reservation is made into a handicap by the systems in society. These things can be fixed, but the regime wants everything this way. Even if you are a brainwashed military veteran that does and believes everything the American regime wants you to, you still end up abandoned by their society and in poverty once you are no longer useful to them. It is simply a death cult like any other capitalistic society. I bring this up to articulate how society works to the detriment of those not of the ruling class, but keep in mind as well that all of this compounds with disability. Many disabled people born into lower levels of privilege will not even get diagnosis or support in order to function, and more often than not end up adding to the ever-increasing death toll of capitalism. Trying not to get lynched by police, trying not to starve to death, trying to avoid police while sleeping in a car or a tent at the side of the road is exhausting for even those without disabilities. Those who deal with disabilities or even chronic conditions such as HIV/AIDS or mental conditions, will eventually get to a point where they cannot keep up with the required tasks in order to keep themselves alive in such a society. And this is just assuming they don’t have children. Average people in America cannot even see a doctor, so the homeless if they sleep out and it’s cold one night, they can develop a flu and just die of pneumonia because they can't get out of the cold. The slums of Los Angeles and New York are the most inhumane things you will ever see in your life due to how much society actively despises its own people. Even in third world countries, the people in slums are at least respected enough to be allowed to settle. Homeless in America have their tents destroyed by police, beaten by their batons or even raped or murdered by those gestapo police officers. It is a stain on humanity. Suffice to say it is no place for those struggling with disability.
So in a failed state that does not provide for its citizens and even the average person is not given the food or shelter they need to survive, what becomes of those with disabilities who are not able to produce wealth for the parasitic upper classes of society that determine who gets to eat and who becomes homeless? Capitalism creates a false sense of darwinism when in reality there is no logical or natural reason that these people could not or should not be able to survive in society. People with disabilities who are segregated from high-paying jobs or even education in some cases, are basically coerced by the state and by the economic system to work in brutal and exploitative jobs. There exists social safety nets in theory, but these are only ceremonial, because they take years to apply for and reject most applicants entirely. Even for those who succeed in proving disability in court, they tend to be given less than 50% of what they would be given with the minimum wage. How they survive with this is by applying for disability housing, which also takes months if not years. So after you’re done being homeless for years you finally get a house if you’re not already dead by that time like the ruling class wants. There exist programs to help those with disabilities find work where employment agencies advocate for them, but these are ineffective because disabled candidates still need to compete with the general population to provide their labor. Neoliberalism has created a genocide of any person who is not profitable to capitalists. If you are disabled under capitalism, the state wants you to die and creates conditions that cause you to starve to death or become homeless. There is no exaggeration in calling it a genocide. Considering how much of the disabled population are minorities as well, it’s not a surprise at all that the systems are like this. Neoliberalism is so heinous that any other form of rightism becomes even more disgusting for its resemblance.
People may say that what I’m saying is extreme or exaggerated, but living under capitalism and not being able to work makes you exist outside of the society. When you are someone that is not useful to the ruling class of a society, you will be as welcome as dandruff. They may even see you as a threat or a subversive to their society as their systems pose an existential threat to you and you are the most likely candidate to be a dissident. If you are disabled, capitalism is an existential threat to you. In third world countries like America, they do not even want to acknowledge when a friend or family member is disabled because they know that it will just result in the death or poverty of that person. In the US, many people who are insane or homeless are not even sent to mental health facilities or given appropriate treatment. They are put in jail so the government has more forced labor. Being called a radical or a political extremist by liberals that support the systems I am describing, it gives me a feeling as if I am hallucinating or being told a very dark joke. People with disabilities obviously need revolutionary thought, if they are ever going to fix the conditions of society that contribute to the apartheid system they live under.
