I just got a temporary ban for cussing out Elon in one of the antifacist subreddits, felt good. I'm wearing this ban as a badge of honor.

I got perma banned for calling a magat regarded and telling them to stop eating crayons, under rule 1:

Reddit is a place for creating community and belonging, not for attacking marginalized or vulnerable groups of people. Everyone has a right to use Reddit free of harassment, bullying, and threats of violence. Communities and users that incite violence or that promote hate based on identity or vulnerability will be banned.

lol. The small, vulnerable, and marginalized group of election winning fascists.

regarded (sic)

Surely you can insult musk without being ableist though? There's 500,000 words in the English language. Choose one that doesn't drag innocent people into it.

It's why I said regarded instead of retarded. I'd never call someone with a disability retarded though, it's more appropriate for right-wingers.

Typo/intentional misspelling aside, it's clear from context what you meant. Here's a fun idea, let's not call anyone retarded. It's a slur against a marginalized group who have nothing to do with any of this. There are plenty of other adjectives to choose from.
