Mentioning gay rights is condescending to you when I didn’t know you were gay? 
I was simply putting my argument for accessibility in context. But I agree, 
time to end this thread. It’s a shame you’re so defensive.

You set up the straw man of disabled people who like being victims. Not good

 If I'd done that, it wouldn't be good.  I didn't.

It is a fact that some do play "the victim card" and the tone in some of the 
comments on Captchas certainly carried that.  I don't lose the right to react 
to that tone when I detect it whether you agree that I have that right or not 
or even whether you agree that what I'm detecting as tone is real or not.

By the way, I happen to be a gay man, and am quite familiar with the history of 
minority rights/civil rights, so don't dare to lecture me on it.  I've had all 
the condescension I am going to accept from you and at this point will simply 
bow out from responding to you.
