      You believe yourself better than others.

      No, I don’t at all. As I said elsewhere in this thread, I’m disabled, honestly, I find it hard to even consider myself the equal of others, but that’s a problem I just have to deal with, I suppose.

      You want all eyes on you

      Definitely not, that’s actually more like my worst nightmare. I’m not afraid to stand up for what I believe in, though.

      You want to be seen as the god-king of political correctness

      If you think politely asking people to choose a better, more descriptive word instead of using an ableist slur means that someone is acting like a god-king, I wonder what a god-emperor would do…

      Otherwise you’d put your time quietly fighting real situations of ablism

      Using ableist slurs is still ableism and it doesn’t take much to oppose it. It took me about 10 seconds to write my argument.

      you don’t get the recognition and notoriety for that

      Ah yes, the ‘notoriety’ of someone whom politely suggests alternatives to using ableist slurs. I’m like a modern day Blackbeard.

      You’re quite the projectionist, by the way.

      you think I’m getting upset, but I’m having a blast

      Clearly, you’re having such a blast. I definitely didn’t trigger your emotional dysregulation because you tried to make a “logical” argument that fell apart as soon as anyone so much as looked at it. And you’re definitely not trying to overcompensate by acting like you’re just “trolling” and lying to yourself that what you’re feeling is “fun” and not stress. This is exactly what I used to do, too. Get your ego under control, dude, you’re smart and capable, you don’t need to respond like this to every perceived slight. Trust me.
