    And more ableism. That’s 2 warnings I’ve needed to give you within a few hours.

      isn’t it a bit to far to consider calling others crazy a form of ableism? I understand that the intention behind its use is to offend, but I don’t think it’s reason enough to receive an admin warning.

        I really don’t like it, as its a personal attack that’s easy to rely on for lazy trolls who don’t want to describe why they disagree with something. I know its not a DSM classification or anything but its still used to demean people with mental disabilities.

          @soferman@lemmy.ml does that all the time, he doesnt need to the specific word “crazy” to do it.

          Okay. I didn’t know that this instance defined calling people crazy as ableism. I’s not defined as ableism any other place so I hope that the admins have a bit of leniancy on their instance specific rulings.

            Calling others tankie scum or authoritarian defenders for a month or two is not exactly normal civil behaviour. None of the people that criticised you ever needed to use slurs against you to make their point.

      This is absolutely fucking idiotic. Or is “idiotic” an ableist slur because it degrades stupid people?

      This kind of blatantly ideologically-motivated behavior is why your platform will die.

        Your “free speech” reddit alternatives where you can say any bigoted slur you want, and be as rude to strangers as you want already exist. Why don’t you go there instead?

          Straw men, straw men everywhere. Thanks for making the decision to leave your crazy echo chamber easier.

        You have not justified why the words you use are needed to convey your point. Is your argument that bad?
