This is a good step in the right direction, but this piece is still incredibly insensitive. Using words at all is literacy privilege. The author really needs to start thinking about people who either can't speak, or have lost the ability to speak. Not to mention the fact that there are millions of infants and mentally disabled people on this planet who can't even read, let alone speak. Sorry if I have offended you with this harsh response, but I'm still feeling extremely triggered by the brash insensitivity on display in this post.

I had never thought of this before, but now that my eyes have been opened and I have spent a good fifteen minutes absorbing my new reality, I shall go forth to lecture the great unwashed masses about what bigoted jerks they are.
do you mind articulating what you think is actually wrong with the post?
