So apparently there's this big #FediForum coming up tomorrow & on weekend in #VancouverBC. I was thinking about attending for a few hours as 2 of the nonprofits not on Mastodon yet were willing to pay for me to go. Unfortunately - the organizers seem to be very #ableist.

I sent a direct question about their #CovidSafety protocols because their event site info had ZERO info for concerned people who don't want to catch covid at any forum/convention. No answer at all. This lack of providing public information on #Covid & how they plan to mitigate, lack of answers on my direct public safety question -> top shelf #ableism.

This event isn't #inclusive.

#PeopleWithDisabilities

I wouldn't have to call out your #Vancouver#FediCon if your organizers weren't so fucking ignorant about #PeopleWithDisabilities in the first place. Your event organizer is an #ableist & I've yet to see any of you people listed on their public info - as speakers - calling them out for their #ableism

WTAF.

Don't advertise this #FediForum as #inclusive if any of you planning to attend this #ableist FediForum are too cowardly to speak out even ONCE for #PeopleWithDisabilities.

Don't fucking tell me that you're anti-ableist either - if you can't even speak out about this absolute lack of consideration for disabled folks. In addition to ignoring a direct question about covid safety to main organizer - who, by the way, doesn't use #AltText either.

If you're attending this ableist Fediverse forum - let them know, excluding #PeopleWithDisabilities is fucked up & there's consequences for that, longterm.

Zero people speaking about people with #disabilities at this #ableist#Fediverse forum too.
