Why do you just assume everyone can drive? Plenty of people either don't have a license or don't have a car.
It's definitely true that ignorant people ignore the fact that people with disabilities exist.
Where I live every major grocery store provides free assistance to people with disabilites who have trouble to shop.
Extortion companies like Door Dash are not the solution.
You realize a take away is a lot different from shopping for groceries, right? What you have said isn't relevant and isn't a solution. There is no perfect solution for people with disabilities under capitalism because capitalism is incompatible with the needs of disabled people. It's also not just about disabled people. Not everyone can afford, wants, or needs the most dangerous and environmentally destructive form of transportation in common use.
Edit: also not all disabled people can cook or have the energy to cook. Heck, most non-disabled people like to get delivery once in a while.
Well no. Where I live nearly all grocery stores sell meal kits, heat and eat food, and hot meals.
While that's great you're essentially saying disabled people shouldn't have take out because you don't like delivery apps. Not everywhere and in all countries are shops going to provide those services.
That's an irational conclusion to draw from my statements.
Okay then how do you suppose they do it? Not every restaurant can afford to have their own delivery service, though luckily some do.
Where I live we have honest delivery services. To me, this means they don't mark up the menu, their drivers are real full time employees, they charge a reasonable fee, and they do not expect tips.
They are happy to carry things up and inside for those that need it.
I don't own or want a car btw.
and yet somehow we've survived as a species this long. how in the world did we make it without door dash?
That's not at all a response to what I said. Does it hurt you that much to admit that maybe something you don't like has a use? Or can you just not live with the idea of not having a car?
it has a use for useless people.
You are one salty guy huh
Not as salty as the food from places you people order take out from .
You're saying this to someone who can actually cook as well. Sometimes you just want delivery. Businesses are even allowed to use their own delivery services with these apps. It allows a standardized way to order food without having to deal with random paper menus and badly designed websites.a
Whatever dude. A fool and his money and all.
