I’m not saying it’s universal. I’m saying it’s not your joke to make - if you have a relationship with somebody it potentially impacts where that is the way y’all banter, then go ahead. But in your day-to-day life with the broader public it doesn’t suddenly give you permission to use ablest language. Intention doesn’t change that.
It isn’t ableist, that’s the entire point. For it to be ableist, it has to be either derogatory and/or not acceptable to the form of disability involved. I’m saying that neither of those are the case in this post.
Unless you’re saying you’re autistic and object on that basis, I frankly don’t know why it bothers you when plenty of people that are autistic absolutely do not care.
Look, dude, if you roll up on me in public and say you like my cripple stick, unless you’re saying it in a douchey way, I’m not going to be up your ass about it. Why? Because while cripple is a term that some people may use in a douchey way, the word itself isn’t some kind of slur. So, if you aren’t using it as one, why the fuck would anyone care? Hell, if a non cripple started giving you shit, I’d point my fucking cripple stick at them and tell them to fuck off. Jumping in and trying to tell a fucking cripple what is and isn’t acceptable to say to them is ableist.
That’s essentially what you’re doing. If you’re neurotypical, you do not get to speak for the neurodivergent. That’s what the entire point is. I started out trying to say it a little nicer, but the condescension inherent in making claims for someone else is absurd.
Are you autistic? If that’s the case, I’ll fuck off and leave you alone. Otherwise, fuck that ableist shit right in the ear, because my crippled ass, and the autistic people I know don’t actually need anyone talking shit on our behalf, we do quite well ourselves.
Dude ffs I am on the spectrum and I am telling you it is an ableist slur. Do I seriously need to say that for you to take this seriously? Care to lecture me further about some thing you clearly do not understand? Want to tell me more about how I don’t understand the thing I’ve lived with my entire life? Want to hide behind people like me that you know while you dismiss me?
Exercise some humility and think for three seconds that you might be wrong about something. Unless it is so important to you to be able to use “REEEE” to mock people that you literally can’t consider maybe you don’t get all the dynamics.
Jesus Christ why is it so important for you to repeat 4chan bullshit at the expense of people like me? Why can’t you just respect that some people find it deeply offensive?
Fuck this and fuck you. I’m done. Don’t bother responding.
