    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.

      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.
