    Attacking the use of an impolite word towards a literal fascist takeover is a distraction tactic that you have fallen for and now use against those who rightfully should be on the same side.

        Is it an ableist slur? I think it mostly just applies to GOP voters and “I’m not voting because perfect is the enemy of good” non-voters.

        Did I use an ableist slur? I don’t think I did. And I don’t believe in any gods.

        I’m saying that if the takeaway from the other user’s comment was the word choice rather than the message - this signifies another win for the systems that seek to keep even the tiniest resistance splintered and ineffectual.

          Oh, so it’s splintering and ineffectual to call out someone’s slur usage, but not to use slurs?

          Idk? maybe don’t use slurs if you want to garner the support of lefitsts???
