2023 now… doesn’t matter what it used to be.

[-] Kedly@lemm.ee 6 points 11 months ago

Yes, so thats 33 years where its NOT BEEN USED TO REFER TO PEOPLE WITH DEVELOPMENTMENTAL DISABILITIES

[-] GalacticCmdr@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

It absolutely was used to refer to development disabilities in the US during the 80s - as well as anyone acting like they were disabled.

And probably about 23 years where it’s been frowned on to use the word as a pejorative. Don’t use your capital letters with me dipshit.

[-] Kedly@lemm.ee -4 points 11 months ago

I can capitalise whatever letters I damn well please, and like I said in another reply, insults by their nature have never been appropriate, and by their very nature are frowned upon.

[-] Frog-Brawler@kbin.social -2 points 11 months ago

Yet, you’re cool with doing it… okay.

[-] Kedly@lemm.ee 0 points 11 months ago

Yes, yes I am. What a fucking gotcha that was. Oh no, my insult insulted people, whatever should I do
