          The comparison between narcissism and anger management problems and pedophilia is much closer than autism, schizophrenia, or even just basic anxiety.

          These people have problems with inhibitions that would ordinarily stop them from abusing other people. Not every mental disorder demands accomodation in the same way.

          Sorry you thought you found one of life's cheat codes. You'll always be searching for those

              This is similar to how people call sexuality a "drive" when it's just an incentive reward system in the brain, not a survival thing.

                You're so fucking pathetic trying this debate bro shit here. You have no fucking clue how many smug dipshits like you we brush off regularly. Just pack it up bud, go outside. I think you need some fresh air.

                Have you checked your apartment for black mold? I know that can really fuck your brain up.

                  This is not a dishonest debating tactic and you are defending the idea that people with inhibition problems that threaten others need accomodations in the form of never being called out

                  Imagine we stopped using "mad" because some people have anger issues.

                  Imagine we stopped using "nonce" because, some people are pediphiles.

                  Imagine we stopped using "narcissist" because some people are narcissists.

                  Doesn't make any sense. They're pejorative for a reason. These are abusive tendencies towards others.

                          I think the issue here is that Magicker is medicalizing bad behavior. They're not saying someone behaved badly, they're saying someone has a medical condition that makes them inherently evil and untrustworthy. You can say someone is being selfish, or lying, or being unreasonable, or whatever, without diagnosing them.

                              totes fair, i was thinking it through myself and trying to explain it is one of the ways I do that. i had to go hunting around to find that the term has always been medical.

                          OP is deliberately misrepresenting what's going on haha, whatever it's not important. You have a good one

            if the user in question hadn't posted about getting help, I might agree with you. but I've had my mind changed. running to 4chan to bully people is coward shit.

              That doesn't have any relevance to the conversation about the use of the word constituting a slur.

              The latter two points are just conjecture. I told you I happened to find hexbear screenshots on "chans". I happen to agree with the takes. You're just assuming that the takes were on 4chan.

          Sorry but I actually know a thing or two about psychology (not from Tiktok) and I'm not terribly swayed by forum users going off out-of-context screenshots

                Says the guy who consistently does not understand Plato's Cave, a literal intro to philosophy concept covered in one or two lectures

                    It's extremely hilarious to see all these midwit redditors wandering in, seeing new ideas to them framed in ways they have never considered before, whose mental fortitude just collapses and all they can do is insist that a bunch of leftists who have been exposed to liberal bullshit their entire lives and everywhere outside of Hexbear, must be the ones shuttering themselves into an echo chamber. You're the first one to grasp for a philosophical metaphor (and fail, of course) but it's all the same shit. Ignorant, uninteresting liberals panicking at new ideas and trying to comfort themselves with any possible excuse.

            Yeah you're just being cringe on purpose now. The smug Redditor parody is way too obvious to be real. Sorry, the bit is old now.

              This is a narcissistic circlejerk within the Plato's Cave of the western left, watchers of the shadows projected by the US polity 🧐

              The definition of cringe here is being anything outside that

                Yeah, see, you've had Platos Cave explained to you and you're still misusing it. No one is that stupid, so the bit becomes too obvious. You messed up the bit.

                  You're just doing the site bit of deliberately misunderstanding things when it suits you to "own the chud"

                  I've pointed out before you'll say a house rep with like 6 kids has "incel energy"

                    Incel is a state of mind. Like you might have children of your own (I seriously hope you do not) but I would still say you have incel energy.

                My fellow Hexbear users aren't familiar with all the logical fallacies we should avoid in debates, so we tend to use ad hominems and such way too often. We especially use the Preconception Prejudice Bias too much, link if you're unfamiliar.
