LMAO THEY GOT BUSTED - Lemmy

I can't be the only one who thinks having a bot to go round pestering people for saying things like barmen is a little ridiculous right?
I had a comment removed (I forget which subreddit) because I used the word “crazy.” Got linked to this list: autistichoya.com/…/ableist-words-and-terms-to-avo…
Ableism/Language

Thoughts on disability justice, neurodiversity, intersectional activism from Lydia Brown, 2011-2020.

That's so dumb, I think you have to be going out of your way to get offended by the word crazy

dumb

You think you can come on here and join the discussions without opposable thumbs!?

without opposable thumbs

omg this is so ableist against ppl who don't have opposable thumbs

i just so happen to have both thumbs on the same side what are you saying bro omg omg this is so ableistic

That page has to be satire... right?

The whole "police your language, so there's no chance anyone could ever be offended" idea is such an oppressive path to a more equal society.

That's a path to inequality, not equality. Trying to silence people because you don't like certain words is a bit of fascism in itself, which these people claim to be against.
It’s called “differently sanitied”, you monster!

Blind to ____ / turn a blind eye to ____ / blinded by ignorance/bigotry/etc. / double-blind review Refers to Blind, low-vision, or sight-limited people. Often used as a metaphor. Consider instead: willfully ignorant, deliberately ignoring, turning their back on, overcome by prejudice, doubly anonymous, had every reason to know, feigned ignorance

Those alternatives dont mean the same thing.
