Ableism? Isn’t that a bit much? That this taking the victimization nonsense to a level even I didn’t think was fathomable.

I'm with you. "Oh no look at that ableist piece of shit Andres Segovia with his ten fingers" give me a break. Chuck Close painted his giant portraits with what, one finger?
sorry if anyone is disabled and i hope they're able to get the support they need, but equating DIY with ableism only makes sense if your disability is "lazy and kind of a moron." and to be fair, i know plenty of people that suffer from this chronic condition, their art is pretty unnecessary, and they're often trying to ally themselves with whichever new protected class in order to garner kudos in ways other than being remarkable on their own merits.
i love this dumb premise, though. i'm going to continue thinking about it. damn, "thinking," how ableist of me... there are people in comas who can't think!
