Looks like it's a bit rainy on the weather report today
 
Ever since you talked about how the worst insult to an Indian is something like "I fucked your mothers izzat" or whatever I have seen tons of people saying it.
 
The sign language interpreters are actually because of a bigger issue: The deaf community. They can be some of the most bitter and fucked up people around. A lot of people know that there a people in the deaf community that are opposed to cochlear implants because it's somehow erasing them but did you know there are sects that don't believe that deaf people should learn to read lips because that is somehow damaging to their history/community? The little person in the bottom of your screen is there because they don't believe they should be forced to read.

I'm not saying what you're saying is right or wrong, but i've had the experience with deaf people and i think most of them find it too weird. You are used to the world being on mute and suddenly you are listening to a bunch of stuff, so it's probably weird to them.
In a weird way, it's the same thing for schizophrenic people who hear voices since they were kids, if you gave them a pill that took the voices away they wouldn't like it because they've lived with it their whole life. And i'm not even kidding about that, i've had an internership during university where i had to deal with (mostly) schizophrenic people and the voices they hear are not always negative, it's tied to their emotional state, so if they are depressed them the voices are terrible, but if they are in a good mood they don't mind it at all.

And the implants don't give you normal sound either. To the best of my understanding, it's like hearing constant ambient noise played by the cheapest, most blown out speaker. And when there's actual sound, it rises over that background and it's full of static and hard to parse.

At least that's how I've seen it described by people who lost their hearing then got the implants. The Sound of Metal film (about a drummer who suddenly goes deaf) gives an approximation of the experience which I believe is reasonably accurate.

It's understandable why, with the current state of the technology, people could reject it. More so if they've been deaf from birth, much harder to adapt.

ON THE OTHER HAND

This was one of the things that made me really wake up to how bullshit this whole identity worship movement was. There was a case of a deaf couple who traveled to Brazil so an unethical doctor could REMOVE THE HEARING from their NORMAL SON, because if he grew up not deaf, he would not experience the community he belongs to.

How can a parent ever think "yeah I'll MUTILATE my child and remove one of their senses to appeal to my own ego". *

Then I learned about Proxymunchy moms, and even more so, Trannyproxymunchy parents, mainly moms.

*It's also why I hate "social/class consciousness". The entire point of parenthood and raising the next generation is giving them a better experience than yourself, removing as many of the difficulties as possible. Class consciousness people want the next generation to never ascend to a better status, so that the struggle can continue forever. If you grow to, or put your children into, a better station, you're a class traitor (what in my side of the world they call "desclasado", kind of like "unclassed", or a "facho pobre", "poor fascist").

Not unlike niggers admonishing responsible, reasonable niggas for acting white.

The "deaf community" people are some of the most detached from reality weirdos on the planet. It's like they saw the Nation of Islam and said signed, "hold my beer, we can come up with a way more unhinged victim narrative".

Deaf people are also just assholes in general. American Sign Language is very simple and direct - and people who are raised in that culture basically act like weirdo pacific islanders nonmatter what color they are. It really shows that there's something to the theory about how your native language shapes how you interact with the world.
