bluejaybirdie: Oh my god. This is the most horrific, ableist, awful, exclusionary, bigoted thing…I can’t even deal with this right now, someone with more spoons then me please do a better call out of this. Swear to God, when I first saw this it made me nauseous. Bluejay, I’m pretty sure whoever is running/moderating that tumblr is just a massive troll. Someone who apparently takes pleasure trying to bait people who are upset about the ableist implications about erasing Oracle and regressing Babs to Batgirl. This is clearly someone who is TRYING to hurt people with this bullshit “secret”. To the secrets-maker or anybody else who is Not Getting It, I suggest some reading and learning*: http://puckett101.tumblr.com/post/6188747591/on-disability-and-visibility http://www.newsarama.com/comics/oracle-is-stronger-than-batgirl-110606.html *reading and learning, and not belittling or dismissing other people’s feelings about erasure and discrimination: it’s what Barbara fucking Gordon would do!
