Look at this cowbee, so easy for you but think of how hard being reasonable and empathetic is for bigoted assholes? In avoiding ableism you’ve become a participant!
i need to get into the habit of adding tags like these because i’m almost never serious and it never fails for someone to miss the sarcasm/snark each time i do it.
I’ve had bigots use gender affirming insults and supportive people that are just the worst at gendered language, people suck and we’re all just people.
We are all guilty of this. Especially if you don’t think so, you are.
I don’t really think it’s difficult to avoid ableism in our language.

If a single word with no significant history attributes ableism to the person or people who use it, then perhaps you’re the problem.
What are you alluding to?

Exactly. Just try to be better when you can.
