Suffering Perception and Disability Rights Movements
Society often views suffering as a negative aspect of life, associating it with being a 'loser.' The disability rights movement challenges this perception by celebrating those with disabilities and emphasizing their value. Like the gay pride movement, it aims to shift pity towards empowerment, organizing parades to showcase the joy and diversity in their lives.
