I said addictive meds are addictive regardless. You called me ableist. Now you said I was degrading, invalidating, and judging people.
Who? What people did I invalidate and degrade by saying that addictive medication is still addictive even if you do have adhd?
You jumped in calling me ableist and then followed that up by claiming I was the one "degrading, invalidating and judging" others. Do you not see the irony in that?
Why am I being abrasive? Because you jumped in fucking insulting me. Derp fucking derpity derp.
I said you where speaking like an ableist because you were. It’s not an insult. I would also call out someone a speaking like a racist. Not an insult either.
I’ll let you be. I’m off to bed. I do hope things get better for you.
Right. Of course you wouldn't be insulted if someone said you were speaking like a racist. Who would possibly be insulted by that? Oi. Just going to block you now.
