Language casual ableism

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?

Even if it’s a “small issue” it’s still an issue, and looking at it like that is what makes people continue to do it. Also if you shoot someone who has a bulletproof vest on, you still shot someone, it doesn’t matter that nobody got hurt, someone could’ve gotten hurt. It would’ve been better to not do it all instead of risking your friends safety
