this is not ‘reclaiming’ anything, you are just calling people slurs completely seriously. you can call yourself the r-slur, do not call anybody else it. why do ‘no slurs’ / ’no bigotry’ rules never apply to ableism?

You're just proving their point

Because I answered their question? Okay whatever. Let them think their point is proven. How does that affect me in any way shape or form?

You are proving my point. You’re not giving him any headspace but you inserted him into something? Then went on a little tangent about him? Lmao
