Schizo is short for schizophrenia
Fag is short for faggot, which is already homophobic
You’re really going to compare this to “faggot” and “nigger”? These words are obviously meant to discriminate those people, when I’ve never seen “schizo” be used to discriminate people having this mental disorder
You are using their disorder as an example of something that’s wrong/bad
Well it is bad… I believe nobody wants to have schizophrenia, just like dementia and Alzheimer’s, yet I believe you’re fine with people saying those words when you have bad memory, unless you believe that’s a slur as well? I don’t believe it was ever meant to discriminate those people, or to say that they are inferior in any way.
You freeze peach idiots are only interested in yourselves.
Bold assumption to make, when you’re making a tantrum about a specific subject. No, we’re not. And if I’m wrong, then I’ll admit it. Banning straight up for 7 days (iirc) is not the way to go to educate people. You assume bad intentions which can only end up wrong.
I do agree that using the word like that is inaccurate and might be a bit offensive, but claiming someone is ableist because of this is far fetched
