    Looks like OP could use the reminder that being angry at fascists doesn’t make it ok to throw disabled people under the bus because you can’t come up with words to describe your feelings, however valid, without slurs.

    ableism is the weapon of the enemy, we do not need it we will not use it

      Agree but also the US has gone fully encumbered, saying this as a disabled person

        Hey, look, you found a word to describe the situation that isn’t a slur, in your attempt to excuse and justify the use of a slur!

        Pro tip: work on your internalised and lateral ableism. Or at the very least, don’t be that person who gives people a pass on behalf of an entire community, because you personally don’t think it affects you or others like you, because there isn’t one.

          ?

          I wasn’t justifying it. I’m legally disabled, I don’t like that word, I was agreeing with you. Fuck your pro-tip and fuck off. Get off your high horse.
