Ever thought that by stating that only disabled/mentally ill people can reclaim ableist slurs, you are implying that ONLY they can use those words the correct way?Β
I'll give an example; an autistic person uses the word "retarded" when referring to themselves and others, disabled or non-disabled. Does that make it right? No, not at all!Β

I could understand being offended by words like "retard" or "handicap", but some people are actually offended by words like "insane" or "derpy".
My God >_>

"insane" is only bad in certain contexts

I'm mentally ill, theΒ only thing I find "ableist" is self diagnosis and people who fetishize mental illness on Tumblr. I'm not saying I speak for all mentally ill people but that's just how I feel. : /Β

fetishize mental illness

Indeed they do! Mainly the people who post pictures of their self harm scars and call it 'beautiful', or try to act cutesy about things such as plastering it all over their bio and purposely acting childish.

Ignore Tumblr. They should not have the power to dictate what words we can and cannot use.

jesus christ almighty thank you. i myself am mentally ill and i do not see a problem with even a single one of these words
π: 0 β©: 0
However, the r-word is, and you really should not use it.

"derpy" should never have been a word in the first place

Thank you for making this stamp.
Seriously, words shouldn't be hurting us at all. Censoring speech like "dumb" or "loony" is just wrong to me. Are people really that thin skinned these days?
