(3,234 posts)It's 2022.
Can we please not use ablest language when describing people we disagree with & can't stand?
Many people, including those on this very website have mental health issues & much of it is severely underfunded in this country.
Thank you

(3,234 posts)Making excuses to be ablest ain't it.
And just because the other side does it isn't an excuse to act like them either.
What got us Trump was the Electoral College, not your inability to use language which punches down on people with mental health issues.
Jeez.

Creep is a lunatic. Short hand a loon.
Eloon works for me. Although I prefer creep.
Amazing people think theres actually a way to be too mean to Eloon and Trump etc.
No fat shaming because Dump is fat and that might offend someone. No making fun of trumps orange hue because it might offend people with Carotenemia. No making fun of Dump Jrs Coke habit because it might offend addicts. And we cant talk about how old Charles Grassley is, and how unfit he is to serve at 90, because thats ageism.
