        If you see someone using a completely generic insult and your brain immediately goes to “yeah, they must be attacking differently-abled people”, then I’m pretty sure that makes you the ableist one?

          You don’t have to be insulting a disabled person with an ableist slur to be ableist. Just like if you call everyone of every race the n-word, you’re still a racist.
