I love how even his bullshit story was already damming to anyone who sees children as people. What a pathetic deadbeat narcissist.
I found my favorite comment of the week. Maybe even the month!
Using ableist slurs on bigots doesn't actually help. It just increases the amount of bigotry in the world and makes minorities feel even more unsafe. You can't "target" an ableist slur to only insult the person who deserves it. It inherently attacks the undeserving as well.
Narcissist isn’t a slur, and narcissism isn’t a disability. It’s a personality disorder. There is a difference.
Stop spreading misinformation.

It's a disability.
“Associated with” psychosocial disability. That means it can occur with disabilities, not that it is one.
Because it isn’t.
Hey, guys, what if we made "asshole" a protected class?
Literally every source, authority and dsm imagineable distinguishes nacissm and npd as separate things but sure, you, rando on the internet are the only correct one.
I might be out of touch here, but I'm confused as to what part of that was ableist? Not trying to be an asshole, just trying to figure shit out.
None of it. This person regularly spreads misinformation like this and claims anything they disagree with to be slurs or ableism.
N*rcissist is a slur against people with NPD. It originates in pop culture with self help scams that told people their abusive friends and family had NPD. Also the etymology of the word begins with a Greek guy who was put to death by the gods for being asexual, so yikes.
Congratulations on having one of the worst takes I’ve ever seen (the one about narcissus).
Anyone who thinks a 16 year old deserved to die because he wouldn't date or sex anyone is probably a pedo.
Anyone who thinks "gods" "cursed" someone obviously needs training wheels.
16 year old who wouldn't date or sex anyone. One of his suitors prayed to the gods that he should love what he cannot have. Nemesis curses him to fall in love with his reflection. He starves to death staring at a pond.
You want to say the child who wouldn't date anyone is the abuser in that situation and not the asshole who tried to rizz a child and prayed for divine intervention when it didn't work?
Actually, by advising you to 'look up narcissus' I was giving you a chance to correct your wildly inaccurate claims that narcissm in reference to self-involvement was a "pop culture refence" but instead you went headfirst into a bizarre fantasy argument of your own making.
What you are doing here? It is not normal.
"Normal" is an ableist slur. So is "the," "blue," "Monday," and "necktie."
Don't you oppress me, mate!!
I'm reading up to try and understand a bit more where you're coming from. Do you have any links that expand on this? Ableism is 100% unacceptable here, and I do understand how "narcissist" can be used as a pejorative or to dismiss someone who doesn't have NPD. I just hadn't heard it referred to as a slur before. So yeah if you could point me in the direction of some more info I'd appreciate that.
