    The word hasn’t seen widespread use as a “disability slur” for a very long time. The great irony of this very vocal online minority continuing to fake offence and turn it into a political left vs right thing is that they are actually trying to take us back to the world in which the word has real power. If they were genuinely concerned about the word then they would just shut the fuck up and let it exist as the generic insult it has become.
