Why is the word "access" a signifier that slips to "love."
Access is not love. Access is the law.
I don't need you to "love" me in order to make something accessible.
In fact, I don't want your "love." That implies a relationship I don't consent to.

This is not easy shit to say publicly because of how widely adopted access = love.

No. I don't love you. I don't have to love you. Love is not part of my bid for civil rights. I won civil rights in 1990.

This idea that I, a disabled person, need to "love" you, in order to get access from you?
That seems abusive to me. Actually. Now that I think about it.
I should have access because it is the law.
Not because I love you.
Not because I show you any kind of "special" emotion
