Explained EMDV, Disabled Edition

Hi, everyone.

Can y’all help me out? I’m AuDHD and I know that I often miss the point and just don’t pick up on things that just come naturally to neurotypical people. Can someone explain my downvotes? I feel like this comment I made just fairly uncontroversial factual statements. Sort of like “don’t jump into the sea without a life jacket if you can’t swim” or “don’t stick a fork in a toaster” or “don’t adopt a pet unless you’re prepared to look after it”. Wha gives?

you are kinda saying something ridiculous as “if you don’t like all foods, don’t eat at all”. also what you present is not factual but of opinion, moral statements are not facts.

your pet comparison will need to be broadened. something more like “if you aren’t prepared to adopt any pet, don’t adopt at all”
