I have autism and ADHD, so no, I won't stop using it. I don't like the idea of a word having any real power, which restricting its usage does. There is no debate here for me, I am completely against that kind of thing.
So using autist as an insult would be okay for you too?
Legitimately yes. You can call me whatever you like.
Do you think everyone feels that way?
No, and the answer isn't policing speech. The block button exists for a reason. Use it.
Huh? I want to have a discussion, not block different opinions.if you want to do that, go right ahead, but that's not my way.
