    Please consider retiring the “R” word from your vocabulary. There are so many other better options, and that word is an epithet that causes harm. The folks with developmental and cognitive disabilities, a marginalized community, knows the word well, and know it appllies to them.

      stop trying to be offended for other people, they already have enough to deal with, you are actually making it worst for them, giving them negative exposure

          His point is that even if it may cause harm for people reading it, lecturing people about it may cause more harm because people might start resenting mentally disabled people because of it.

          If you call a person with right leaning opinions a nazi, you may have pushed him more into being a nazi.

          your virtue signaling is not helping is what he is trying to say IMHO
