I think the problem is that people try to replace one ableist word which can be used in a ton of circumstances with a drop in replacement. That will inevitably lead to more ableist language because the whole function of an insult like that is to associate the target with a Bad Type Of Person, which disparages both. Insults should be descriptive and pointed, which “stupid” never is.
The underlying thought process needs to change, not just the word.
Shitheel. Shitgibbon. Fuckcanoe.
My default nowadays is just calling people nerds.
Yeah, I just feel like without replacements I start to feel like I am being redundant and I want to get ideas for more creative jabs.
i know i can probably get to the bottom of this with a simple google search, but does "moron" have some kind of shit origin or nah?
ignoramus
I've gone the way of saying we're all whatever non ableist word one can invent for stupid in one way or another and we should instead look into ourselves as to what variety of Dumb we are and self identify with what suits our particular lackings. I'm not sure what should describe what yet, but I for one am an oaf but I'm for sure not a numbskull or a blockhead, a nimrod or an ignoramus, but some people are and that's cool. Then it's only an insult when you're called one of those things that isn't your lane.
i am definitely a lunatic
i love the idea that my bipolar disorder is "because moon", it tickles me
Nimrod is a great hunter in the bible. It became an insult because Bugs Bunny would call Elmer Fudd that sarcastically. So perhaps you are a nimrod, depending on the quarry
I already knew that cause I've read the dang Bible and love Looney Tunes. Also a quarry is where you get rocks from, a quary is what you hunt. So perhaps you are the nimrod
Evil or unwise, depending on what you mean exactly.
When people call something dumb, they mean "not thought through". When applied to politics, you arrive immediately into bumbling american empire station and "never ascribe to malice blah blah".
When drunk friend does something weird, that's "not thought through or unwise" part

I've taken to using "redditor" tbh. Even among normies being a dedicated reddit poster has become deeply uncool and makes a person seem like an uneducated dweeb
Dillsmack is a fun one
