Not all “access” is access. These terms unpack how institutions weaponise the language of inclusion while reinforcing control. This glossary is a semantic safeguard — exposing the ways that accommodations can be restructured into surveillance, dependency, and gatekeeping.
Support That Punishes Non-Conformity
When accommodations are only granted if you play by the system’s rules — regardless of how harmful those rules are. “You can have support, but only if you stay in your place.”
Platforms That Replace Human Support — Then Fail
When support is moved online in the name of “accessibility,” but results in even less accountability — and no one to talk to when the system breaks.
Access as a Brand, Not a Practice
When organisations showcase inclusion through brochures and photos, but the actual supports don’t work — or exist only for show.
Policy Promises Without Delivery
When a support exists on paper but not in practice — and the burden of proof is pushed onto the person who was excluded.
When "Choice" Is an Illusion
When a system offers only pre-approved options and calls it “choice” — then uses your participation to imply informed consent.
Only Some Get Out — And Only If They Behave
When only the most “palatable” or institutionally aligned people get access to opportunity — while others are labelled difficult, dangerous, or non-compliant for needing the same things.
A collection of protected semantic frameworks written by lived-experience authors. Each glossary holds the line against pattern theft, narrative laundering, and coercive rewording.
