Oppressive Deaf Space?

Something I read (and watched) on YouTube by spdundas37 concerning the a-wordism at Gallaudet University and about "Deaf Space."  Now I understand this concept of "Deaf Space" especially when it revolves around hearing people on the campus of Gallaudet University and even more so while in classrooms. Although I have serious reservations about going after a group of hearing people at a table who are having a private conversation in Gallaudet University cafe dinning room who were signing and talking at the same time (SimCom). I don't know if all of the hearing people knew sign or if they were all students at Gallaudet or there were a few hearing people who didn't know sign which could probably explain the reason for this CODA SimComming. Such information was limited given by spdundas37. If it's a group of people having their own private and quiet conversations at a table and no one is complaining at that table, what right does spdundas37 have from across the room to tell them to stop using SimCom?

Moving on. Let's change the picture some. I have other questions about this "Deaf Space" concept described by spdundas37 when it comes to deaf and hard of hearing students who do regularly sign and use their voice at the same time on campus. Back in my days at Gallaudet University from 1988 to 1991 myself and many of my friends and their friends signed and talked at the same time.  Many of us signed and mouthed the words at the same time, sometimes completely or partially. Many of us simply signed with some mouth movements or none at all. Most of these conversations took place at Gallaudet University cafeteria where we all naturally segregated ourselves into our respective tables and have these conversations. Nobody objected because these were private conversations and we were all in our own very special "Deaf Space" based on our comfort level with each other and our tolerance when it came to communicating. I'm sure today this is still true that many deaf/hh students do regularly sign and talk to each other at the same time while on campus at Gallaudet University outside of the classrooms. I don't know if this would be the minority or majority of the campus population but the point is that it still continues today.

I believe spdundas37 was wrong to intrude onto a private conversation at another table by telling a group of hearing people to stop using their voice while signing.  If that CODA person actually screamed and attacked spdundas37 then that CODA person was wrong to do that but then again I wasn't there and so I don't have the full picture of what really went on. Although spdundas37 made it clear that this group of hearing people was at another table across the room using SimCom which clearly tells us that this was a group of people having a private conversation amongst themselves and to no one else. It wouldn't matter if they were hearing, deaf or hard of hearing. What matters is that they were having a private conversation and bothering nobody. If they were SimComming then what does it matter if they signed and mouthed the same exact words instead without voicing? What does it matter if you cannot hear their voices? Simply put, it was a private conversation that got interrupted because of political correctness.
