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.
You all have literally learned psychology from youtube and tiktok, that's where all the resources in /c/neurodiverse@hexbear.net lead

How does not calling out negative behaviors help people who are themselves trying to limit them
