Alright folks I don't want this to be a struggle session so let's operate from "'stupid' and 'dumb' are ableist terms, now what?" I would like people to offer up alternative insults/negative remarks. (hexbear.net)

While I said I don't want it to be a struggle session, cool headed good faith discussion is also appreciated. This just came up with some comrades of mine and I couldn't find the last post about it so if anyone has the link that would be great too.

i go back and forth on animal comparisons, it can be really vile sometimes but people also do it very casually shrug-outta-hecks i personally think dog is very mean, but donkey/ass a lot less rude for some reason

I like starting an animal-comparison, then reversing half way to say that the noble rat or pig or jackal has done nothing so awful as to deserve being compared to the person I'm insulting.
