Why do we describe animal wheelchairs as freeing the animal to be able to run around and human wheelchairs as confining and limiting their users?

Man on the train moved from the doorway.... to stand in the wheelchair space. Well done, mate! ๐ #EverydayAbleism
In a world where almost anything can be done online, people with chronic illness or disability still need to complete a 40 page booklet by hand and put it in the post in order to claim PIP ๐

Sigh. Uber driver parked, saw me and my guide dog and then very obviously drove off and cancelled the trip. ๐. #EverydayAbleism
Why are sit-down showers always left with the shower head at standing height?

Literally two other passengers on the bus and they've decided to take up all the disability space available under social distancing rules. Cheers, lads! #EverydayAbleism #COVID2019 #ableist #Feckin 'Eejits
WTF? RT โ๏ธdog. in a sink. โ๏ธ: Hi Lidl UK I love Silvercrest gadgets but you REALLY need to speak to whoever writes your user manuals. Everyday Ableism pic.twitter.com/lQnTDisAwM
Isn't it lovely when The New York Times simultaneously patronizes crips--never asking for our opinions, let alone leadership--and suggests 'protective measures' that are atrociously ignorant to the point of recklessness? #CripLife #DoubleBinds #EverydayAbleism #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs
It is #EverydayAbleism when the assumption of severity leads to a binary solution. I only have my wheelchair to sit in because almost every 'supportive' chair is built on the assumption of being hoisted into the chair.
Just got a hard stare for transferring from my wheelchair into an arm chair in a coffee shop. ๐ #EverydayAbleism
Should be on this train but because of a broken lift I've got to wait 15 minutes for the next one. Of course I won't get any delay compensation #EverydayAbleism
gotta love that casual ableism, mostly because when people get confronted on this, they realize they were a fuck and back off.
Imagine if we did that for people with physical abnormality, learning disabilities, mobility issues, and PTSD

I would love to go and see #NopeMovie with my partner on Friday evening.
However, she's deaf, and there isn't a SINGLE subtitled showing of Nope on Friday ANYWHERE IN THE UK.
ANYWHERE.
Out of 4,500+ screens.

#DisabilityTwitter Justin Tomlinson MP thinks asking whether people would be willing to have a physical relationship with a disabled person is an appropriate question to ask in the national study. What do you think? #EveryDayAbleism Cc Natasha Devon ๐๐ James O'Brien
This makes me so angry! Do people seriously think that we, as disabled people use our mobility aids for a laugh or to 'get free stuff'? Absolutely disgusting. I'm so sorry this happened to you and your family Chris.
