"Purple Tuesday" aka treating addressing structural inequality as a marketing exercise. Entirely vacuous consumerist nonsense. No alt text describing the video. No acknowledgement that poverty is a far greater issue facing Disabled people than inaccessible businesses.

The main #PurpleTuesday account @PurpleTuesNov is even retweeting posts like this without alt text.
Anyway I need to go and do things with the rest of my day. I hope this account has afforded some insight into the sheer scale of the problem. Feel free to DM me any particularly egregious examples of big companies, disability orgs etc. and I will post them later.

Honestly the sheer number is staggering. It shows what an exercise in tokenistic purple washing #PurpleTuesday is for many of these organisations. Never mind being accessible to disabled people 365 days a year, they won't even put the effort in on one!

The failures being identified by this account should be incredibly embarrassing for the organisations concerned. However, that would require them to genuinely care about being accessible to disabled people in the first place. #PurpleTuesday

Sadly @GAADBot isn't around any more to automatically find all the inaccessible #PurpleTuesday posts, but @Purpletuesfails is doing a lovely job
