Re: [AI] What do you think?

[Amiyo Biswas]

Well explained. Here are two lines from Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice:
But love is blind, and lovers cannot see
The pretty follies that themselves commit.

There are many instances of such use in literature, including classic and 
modern. People use the expressions like blind fury, blind affection, turning 
a deaf ear and so on. I think, the blind characters in literature are lucky. 
They are looked upon with some sympathy. But many villains are crippled, as 
if crippled people have crooked characters.


Now there is a clear shift in attitude, at least in the media. Visually 
impaired or visually challenged is mostly used in the news.


With best regards,

Hi,
Personally, I don't really mind these expressions. It's not like they
are personally targetting someone's disability. For instance, the
idiom 'Love isBlind', simply means that when someone is in love with
another person and overlooks each other's faults, negative aspects, or
flaws. They are so mad in love that they ignore the person's
imperfections, mostly because of the strong emotional connections they
have with them. After understanding the meaning, you'd understand that
there isn't anything wrong with this.
My belief is that, yes, we should progress towards an inclusive
society where disabilities are not targetted, but that does not mean
that we must go to the extreme. We must think rationaly. Fighting for
non-descrimination and non-targetting is the right thing, but that
does not mean that one should target everything that one sees or feels
is wrong without having the correct understanding. There is a limit
for everything exceeding which, is not a good thing.
That said, I hope you were able to get the answer to your question Rajib! :)
These were just my opinions and what I believe in and were not
intentioned to hurt anyone.

RE: [AI] What do you think?

[Yamuna Jivana Dasa]

Hi Rajib,

These are simply idiomatic expressions. They are not maliciously targeted at 
blind people. It is in our best interest not to become paranoid as this will 
only cause us distress without valid cause. We have enough real-world practical 
struggles as blind people in a sighted world. Let’s not add to it.

 

That’s my take.

Re: [AI] What do you think?

[Abdul Azeez Bundela]

In olden days, we were not in safe and secure situation. we were
niether educated, nor we had much knowledge about our surroundings.
similarly, there was no awareness in our society about blind and
blindness. due to which, people made wrong assumptions about us. these
phrases might come out of these. we have to change the point of view
of this society towards us, instead of cribbing over it. we suppose to
think about the overall progress of our blind community.
Regards.

Re: [AI] What do you think?

[Shadab Husain]

Give a deaf ear to these crippled expressions because points lamely groped
forward are dumb and dwarf when it comes to practicality – a result of
mentally deranged thinking and therefore can blindly burn one’s improvement
as if with an acid.

Hi! As per my thinking or sense, these both phrases are not

without thinking without understanding without seeing anything.
When you love someone, you have no sense to think or see anything
after that, love does not see anything, love just love, that’s why
people say about this that is love is blind. Don’t believe blindly
means, do not believe on someone without verifying, investigating
or without thinking and understanding. It means at same as I
mentioned above, that’s why people say don’t believe blindly on
someone. Please note these are my own thinkings and understanding,

Re: [AI] What do you think?

[ishan sangi]

Dear Sir ,

Disclaimer:
While I don't support any actions that might offend or disrespect people
with disabilities, I'm just answering your question in a clear, respectful,
and informative way, With my limited knowledge. My goal is to provide
information based on my personal Experience. If anything I say
unintentionally causes you any offense, please accept my sincere apologies.

Now answering to the question asked


I think instead of getting caught up on small details, we should focus on
bigger goals and a clear vision for the future.
For example, the word "blindly" often describes carelessness, like saying
"don't trust someone blindly" which means don't trust everyone without
understanding them. Similarly, in technical terms like "blind spot," it
means a place you can't see from a certain angle.
However, it's important to remember that we sometimes misuse words related
to disabilities as insults. Examples include "Are you crazy?" or "Are you
dumb?" In Hindi, we might say "tujhe  Dikhta Nahi Kya?" or "Andha Hai Kya?".
Sometimes, words like " pagal" are even used to describe someone innocent
or naive, like "Tujhe Itni Si Baat Samajh Nahi Aa Rahi Tu Pagal Hai Kya?"
(You don't understand this? Are you mad?)
While I understand your concerns, changing this kind of ingrained language
takes time.
Remember the meme "ye Sub Kya Dekhna Pad raha Hai Acha Hai Mein Andha Hoon"
(It's good I'm blind so I don't have to see all this chaos)? This popular
meme, featuring actor Akshay Kumar, shows how casually such words are used.
It's important to understand that everyday phrases like "let's see" or "see
" or "sea this" or "can't you sea " or " You must have seen her face" are
common, and the goal is to build a more inclusive and friendly environment
for everyone, including people with disabilities.
I've even met people who become overly cautious with their words when
speaking to me , which some time unintentionally makes me feel excluded.
Instead of focusing on these small points, I believe we should focus on the
bigger picture: creating a more inclusive, friendly, and aware society.
For example, phrases like "Apne Pairo pe Khade Hona" (to stand on one's own
feet) can be used to describe someone with strong determination, regardless
of their physical abilities.
Similarly, I believe using words like "blind" in phrases like "love is
blind" or "don't trust blindly" are used metaphorically and don't directly
target any specific community.
It's important to be mindful of our words and their impact, but also
understand that changing ingrained language takes time and collective
effort.
These are just my personal thoughts and don't represent any organization
I'm associated with.
I hope this is clear and easier to understand!
Once again sincere apologies if I have Hurt sentiments of anyone on this
list
regards
Ishan Jain
