OK but pedal wheelchairs are actually useful tools for folks with either limited mobility or in rehab from accidents/surgery.
I think the comparison still stands. It’s a narrow use case.
“Yeah, we shouldn’t care about LGBT+ folk especially Trans athletes there’s only like one of those” that’s you dude
To quote a well known microblog meme:
No b*tch. Dats a whole new sentence. Wtf is you talkin about.
Not all wheelchairs need pedals, like not all apps need AI.
“A narrow use case” is not the same as “no use case.”
And they make ones that are fucking fun, too
They probably have chain guards. OPs looks… dangerous.
surely they wouldn’t be able to reach the pedals from where the seat is located? It’s not designed like a bike
Difficult for Wheelchair user, end of the way for pedal Wheelchair users
That don’t make sense, with limited mobility it is more difficult to move a Wheelchair with pedals than walking, maybe with a cane or walker.
There’s all kinds of injuries or fatigue symptoms that may mean you can move your legs and sit, but you cannot stand…
at least ride this would make fun
They should add bicycle pedals to a walker.
Way to be ableist.
Kinda more like:
10 years from now: I just watched my grandma chew our some poor nurse because the hospital’s wheelchair won’t shut the hell up.
Hey look naked ableism
You have some options. Be a mature adult, apologize, recognize that stuff like this is real mobility assistive and rehab tech, or go the lemmy mod and admin route, double down and throw a hissy fit. Up to you.
