Wrong. I called your STATEMENT evil (there is no such things as evil person) because you told me that we shouldn't fight for disable people right for accessibility.
In other word, if what you are saying to me is true, it means you have internalized the violence of our society to bring it back to my face because yeah.. I'm also a disable person. So sorry but you being disable is not an excuse, in fact its worse, because you know the problem and you refuse to do something about it, preferring the current status quo for people like us.
I'm speechless and I have hard time understanding how someone can say in 2023 that we shouldn't fight for more equity.
Equality is way more important than equity, but equity is important too. There's a reason why there are special accommodations for people with disabilities.
Because there is no such thing as evil person. That's called existentialism and this is the reason why we - in 2023 - still don't understand how criminal function.

Because you said to me that "fake wokeness" was when person were fighting about pronoun.
The purpose of the fight for a more inclusive langage is linked to the process that langage shape the way we think.
For example, if you include neutral pronouns in a grammar, then all of a sudden, you can include person with different type of gender identity in said langage. Which means that not only you will create a more inclusive langage, but this inclusivity will be felt in real society too.
Example : imagine a language were there is only male pronoun. Then you create a society were women are invisibilized through langage, which can lead to real invisibility in real world. But add "her" and you transform the way we think society.
This is why you can see people fight for a more inclusive language.

Are you still sure that language don't shape the way we think ?
Indeed. Even tho I think the concept of equity is far more important. But that's a detail

That's not how it works. You can't run away from problems, that why we're having problems in the first place, too damn soft...
If you can't handle opposition, maybe this place isn't for you instead of hoping to snag like-minded people and have this place be an echo chamber.
They have greatly increased the life-expectancy of those of us who live in "advanced" countries, but they have destabilized society, have made life unfulfilling, have subjected human beings to indignities, have led to widespread psychological suffering (in the Third World to physical suffering as well) and have inflicted severe damage on the natural world.
