I’m pretty sure the person above did not mean to insult people with medical conditions in any way.

I'm sure they didn't. However, they're using a term that is very offensive to some people, which they may be unaware of. That's why it was pointed out. If they want to be an asshole and continue using it anyway, that's on them.

I'm offended by being considered "some people". I'm not "people" I'm a person.

in recent history, I was always grouped into social hierarchies as "you people".

it's very offensive, you should stop calling us "people" and start using the word "person" or "persons".
