Apparently some tech bros are having to learn the hard way that the creator of #Linux is a leftist
Charlotte Walker@kendricklmao8 @ErickaSimone hmmm not so woke that he has a problem with using ableist slurs, I notice
Ericka Simone@purplepadma @kendricklmao8 off top. I’m not seeing the slur, nor does it make it okay to use it.
However. Jesus. I pray you see the bigger point at hand he’s making. Because it’s important to acknowledge.
@ErickaSimone @kendricklmao8 You’re not seeing “moron” as a very significant slur? That kind of makes me despair. The bigger picture I’m seeing is that disabled people don’t have a place in the left’s brave new world
@purplepadma No, I did not know that moron is a slur. At all. This is the first time I’ve ever heard. He might not know either.
Next. “The bigger picture I’m seeing is that disabled people don’t have a place in the left’s brave new world.”
Why would you assume this? Off his use of a word he might not know is “inappropriate?” Maybe your vision would widen if you stop narrowly focusing on supposed slights and understand this man just made it clear he stands with the people, overall.
@purplepadma I’m not going to argue with you. You can feel how you feel. But I’m going to ask you to decenter yourself and what you perceive to be slurs. I didn’t know. He clearly doesn’t know. People are not perfect. Your demand for perfection and for everyone to walk on eggshells because of your personal issues and triggers is selfish, especially during a whole nazi take over. Please understand. I get what you’re saying but FOCUS. NAZIS WANTED TO USE HIS SOFTWARE AND HE SAID NO.
@ErickaSimone Nice to know you’re only interested in certain groups’ marginalisation and oppression. The Nazis started labelling “morons” and other people with intellectual disabilities and murdering them ahead of other oppressed groups. Suggest you read a few basic Wikipedia articles on ableism and Aktion T4 before dismissing the importance of a whole group of people
@ErickaSimone @kendricklmao8 Wondering how you’d feel about me begging you to see the bigger picture about a post using a racist slur to make a political point
