We found the guy in the article!
I don't use racial slurs. I am not a Republican. Staying home doesn't make me a bigot.
If you're really autistic, wear the "weird" label as a badge of honor like the rest of us do. You should also understand that it isn't a slur, except to egotistical, conformative assholes who think they're the normals ones.
But they're not. They're weird, because they can't handle facing the fact that they are.
It's not a badge of honor to have an intellectual disability that, among many other things, makes it harder to function in social situations.
It's nothing to be ashamed of, and social situations are not all there is to life. Autistic people dive deeply into our interests, sometimes to the point it gets a little weird, and that's an awesome thing to be proud of.
These fascists think they're normal, and they need to be reminded how weird they are. They're the only ones who think it's an ableist term.
Them, and for some reason, you.
It makes you a-ok with Trump winning though. Weird is not a racial slur, either.
You equivocated me to the guy in the article, who uses "every slur under the sun". I assume that includes racial slurs.
You're doing a whole lot of assuming in your comments, along with the extremely heavy dose of sob stories.
Stop trying to gaslight me. I've seen this for years at this point. People will hurl insults and accusations, and then plead ignorance based off the idea that implications, connotations, and subtext don't exist.
I was equivocated with the guy in the article. The guy in the article was heavily implied to be a racist. Therefore, I was called a racist.
Also the democratic party loves sob stories. Everyone's lived experience matters except mine apparently.
Dude. Drop the bullshit. We're in a comm about satire. If you can't handle something as simple as that then you need to disconnect and focus on face to face conversations before failing at online discussion like this.
Good luck, I wish you the best.
