Deafhood

[StSapphire]

Where's my DO NOT FEED THE TROLL picture? BRB

 

[AlleyCat]

Not the one I was looking for, but good enough! (I have a cute one I made a while back.)

 

[jillio]

Who?

Anyone who subscribes to the cultural identity of Deaf.

"I have no need for it."

Kokonut - yeah you do otherwise you wouldn't always be here posting and commenting and sharing your thoughts with us. If indeed Deafhood and deaf culture and deaf community are meaningless to you, then you would never be here so evidently, you do care enough to be here every single day even if to keep posting that you don't need all this.

It's the label that I have no need for. I explained that already

I interact with the deaf, hh and hearing community in a variety of ways. HLAA is a good community to get involved with.

Last time I checked AD didn't say it's for "Deaf" people only. Met some wonderful late deafened people here. Some hearing parents. Some oral. Some Deaf. And, I do have an opinion.

Why the intense effort to focus on me? Rather curious.

Well, his need may be a bit different than some. He needs to come here to spout his audist views in attempt to make himself feel superior to the Deaf. He somehow believes he has a score to settle with the Deaf that reject his audist views.

Why your intense effort to spread audism across the Deaf population?

Koko, would you mind answering this question for others?

 

[DeafCaroline]

What are his audist views exactly?

 

[Jiro]

Why read my post then?

why reply back to his post then? ignore it just like you ignore mine.

Ditto.

 

[kokonut]

Ditto.

I'm simply fascinated by all the misinformation.

 

[DeafCaroline]

Misinformation on what?

 

[Banjo]

I'm simply fascinated by all the misinformation.

Fascinated with yourself is more like it.

but you didn't just sit back and smiled. Instead - you quibbled like a drama queen.

 

[kokonut]

I admire people that show independence and drive.

that's what deafhood is about.

 

[Banjo]

that's what deafhood is about.

Ding-dong, that is correct. Next category?

 

[kokonut]

Ding-dong, that is correct. Next category?

Group think doesn't cover that.

 

[DeafCaroline]

"Group think doesn't cover that. "

Oh boy, that question i asked about his audist views? Never mind, Kokonut just answered it himself.
Koko - you just don't get it.

 

[Jiro]

Group think doesn't cover that.

I'm sorry that you didn't have a positive experience at Gallaudet University.
