"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

So I'm just one person, but I'm disabled, and i really don't find these posts ableist. there's also discourse around treatler that pops up sometimes, or going to the gym. i do depend on delivery services to get groceries, but again I've never felt targeted by these posts because I get that it doesn't apply to special circumstances like mine.
The thing about idealists, such as anarchists and ultras, is that they believe strongly in "one size fits all" solutions. If a certain policy is correct, it must always be correct. If something is wrong in one context it must be wrong in all contexts. Adaptation, tactical retreats and changes in policy are often viewed as betrayal, as a straying from the purity of the ideology.
Materialists recognize that it is material reality which determines what is and isn't correct. The right course of action depends on the circumstances. Different solutions are right for different people, just like different political and economic strategies are right for different countries and different historical periods.
It's "to each according to their needs", not "to each the exact same as everyone else".
