Stop Defending Ableists Challenge (Level: Impossible)

So the other day I made a post listing all the ableist things Jacob Richmond has included in Legoland and Ride the Cyclone.

And the response was abysmal - the amount of "well actually..." kind of responses I got was disgusting and I took down the post because I find it counterproductive to argue with teenagers on the internet. However, I stand by the belief that if you think you are old enough to post publicly on the internet, you are old enough to be held accountable for what you post.

But I think what I had to say was quite important, so I am going to reword it here.

TW here for the discussion of ableism and ableist slurs (they are all censored)

There is ZERO (0) justification for the use of THREE (3) ableist slurs across both works. I don't fucking care if it was the 2000's. The ADA predates both shows and disability activism had existed for decades before that (as yannick very kindly reminded me). So no, it was not ok for Richmond to use those slurs in his works, regardless of the time period. Because there is nothing "correct" (politically, or otherwise) about ableism.

And before you say "Oh, but it was the character who said it, not the writer..."

CHARACTERS ARE NOT SENTIENT BEINGS! They are not created in a vacuum. Their thoughts and actions are often a reflection of the author's own beliefs and morals.

It was not Ocean who decided to use the word cr*pple. It was Jacob Richmond who decided to use it. Same with the r word and sp*z in Legoland. It wasn't Penny and Ezra who decided to use those words, it was Jacob Richmond. Because each character's actions are dictated by the decisions that the author makes for that character. And in this case, the author decided to be an ableist asshole.

Yes, characters can be assholes. They can be complex and nuanced beings. But there are better ways to portray such experiences than being violently ableist (i.e.: without using slurs). And why does the ableist character get complexity and nuance, but the disabled character is simply the sad, disabled kid, with not much else in his personality until he magically becomes abled bodied. Like we deserve nuance and complexity as well, people!

In a 2022 interview with Curtain Call Bway (here), when asked who his favourite character to write was, Richmond responds with the following:

Ocean is definitely my favorite character to write because it’s based on certain people I’ve met and certain aspects of myself too.

Like he literally admits it himself, that his decisions when writing an ableist character were based off aspects of his own personality.

The reality is, disability has never been more than a comedic plot point to Richmond. He has never cared about portraying a realistic disabled experience. He has never cared about disabled people.

And the cherry on top is that his response to yannick-robin being hate-crimed was to rewrite Ricky so that he could be played by an abled and therefore production teams wouldn't have to give a shit about ensuring their spaces are safe and accessible for disabled performers. If he actually cared about disabled people and properly representing our experiences, he would have worked with a disability consultant and fixed the issues within the show. Instead, he doubles down and causes even more harm.

To add insult to injury, he then licensed that script to Sarah Rasmussen and her team of ableist cronies for the DC production. Because him choosing to continue working with Rasmussen and her team just shows that he shares the same ableist values as the McCarter/Arena team.

So by saying that "its the character, not the author", you are defending Richmond and his violent ableism. You are attempting to justify the harm he has done and CONTINUES TO DO to disabled people. YOU. ARE. A. PART. OF. THE. PROBLEM.

Ride the Cyclone and Legoland (in ALL its forms and versions) contains so much ableist violence. This violence has traumatised REAL PEOPLE, but yannick, myself, and other people speaking out are the ones ruining the vibe by calling it out? Be fucking for real people.

Now if only my university papers were this thorough...

oh yeah was like i feel i ought to have at least "no for real i've listened to this" tlt musical song under my belt & i know my man rob's got bangers o7 but kept going whoops didn't do that. plus listening to anything as a task, a feat, is like god damn....but i did do that, fired p the finale song. rob with a banger i knew it. love that little note [wikipedia says "bend" for note, half step up or down, return to original note, is a jazz term. do we apply it broadly. i mean the Dip baby] like hell yeah lines to get broadly jazzed to looking for trouble then count me in we're usually about to die (bend! dip!) love the i'll be back next summer and just committing to not even trying to i guess span the entire series which i never read. doing a dance....but. hand on shoulder. tlt musical fans like i was already & am already on call like sprinting over to beat up any haters like on principle it's a o7 from me but like yeah i'd grab the aux & beam that through

#the haters can be thee tonys (god fucking knows. if 2019 wasn't enough...) or just any/all those people who are Like That #the whole genre of like Theatre / Musicals (emphasis on ''cals'') connoisseurs dying to be Arbiters too like imagine living a little #or just being a little more serious lmfao centering your Cultural Experience like ah thee Correct Opinion that i will be recognized for....#uh huh. i for one can't wait to log onto The Forums & be like god i wish i was uhhh. that poster who was Too Good for xyz abc & even jkl #later edit: experienced a boot (bway; as seemed the only readily available option one way or another) & naturally was not expecting to #encounter anything that would validate like nyt tonys other Arbiters losing their everloving shit over it but like hell yeah i liked that
