The Deaf Standpoint: Does JKF Understand?

A Contemporary Gally Trend: Misinterpreting
GALLYBUSTERS Mishka Zena: ?What is Jane doing? All this talk about anarchy, terrorism, and now guns? This is a peaceful and civil protest. Why is she trying to portray the protestors as out of control and dangerous?? Everybody?s starting to upset me. They continue to pull things out of context, and interpret things literally.

Lies as Tool for Audism: Linguistical Slavery
testing_the_truth I am astonished. The tactics of linguistical colonization of the Deaf, practiced by the desperate status quo of Jane Fernandes, Irving Jordan and their army of professional liars, turned rather ugly. They use language as a weapon to enslave the spirit of the protest, the spirit of freedom for the Deaf. Their unbridled lies and slanders show a pure form of Audism, as [...]
