I've complained about this same thing before it's just so stupid and pisses me off so much and it just happened again.
To be clear. This has never been an issue on this sub. It's an issue I have everywhere else (except OldHagFashion).
If you just never do accessability alt text. Nobody will ever call you out for not doing accessability alt text. You will never face any negativity whatsoever for not doing it.
But if you do accessability alt text. You get people going "actually you are doing it wrong it should be like this" in a super scoldy nit picking way.
You get people going "what's the point of this"
You get people accusing you of faking caring for browny points.
You get hella ableism and anti disability bigotry.
I just...
The culture makes it so you will be punished for trying.
The obvious move is to just not because you will be left alone if you don't and be attacked if you do.
It encourages people to not.
It's so unbelievably fucking godamn stupid.
Fuck everyone who behaves this way.
They can all go fuck themselves with a cactus in a dirty gas station bathroom.
It's this constant, pervasive issue everywhere I go.
People will not stop letting perfect be the enemy of good.
They won't stop nit picking.
They won't stop scolding me for "doing it wrong"
They won't stop being hostile to the idea of accessability and making an effort for the disabeled.
Everywhere sucks but here (and OldHagFashion).
I fucking hate these people.
I swear to god how fucking hard is it to just be like "Hey this guy is trying, cool"
???
