There’s a clear campaign against the mentally ill with the global rise of fascism. Lots of it shows up in anti homeless rhetoric, but you can see it in the MAHA and anti vaccination movements.
There’s no reason to use the word “r-tarded” to describe someone. As someone who’s worked with the intellectually challenged, it’s an insult to them to compare them with people who are willfully ignorant.
Not trying to be a troll. I just genuinely don’t understand why sociopathic is acceptable as an adjective and removed is not. Can you explain the difference?
“Sociopath” is not a diagnosis for a mental illness or disability. It is a word describing behavior hostile to others. There is no systemic discrimination against people labeled as “sociopaths.”
