Nah, people with disabilities aren't an exception that can be safely ignored, they are real humans who exist and who deserve to be respected and accommodated equally by those who build public accommodations.

- kube-system 12d agoIs the problem negligibly solved by technology or is it a huge compliance burden for public accommodations? It's one or the other. The reality is that many things are in fact not accessible in very real ways, and people like to pretend that the problem does not exist when their paycheck depends on them pretending it does not exist.

- kube-system 12d agoIf we're talking about wheelchair access, the law is pretty crystal clear and every construction company in the US routinely follows it every time they build a public structure. Temporary structures are often built without code compliance out of expediency, and this is that. Sucks to ignore the law and be called out. There's really no excuse to be surprised by wheelchair accessibility compliance in a public retail establishment in the US in 2026.
