I really don’t like it, as its a personal attack that’s easy to rely on for lazy trolls who don’t want to describe why they disagree with something. I know its not a DSM classification or anything but its still used to demean people with mental disabilities.
Yeah he thinks people who don’t agree with his political views aren’t “normal human beings”. The implication presumably being thst they hsve some kind of mental disorder. The abelism is clear if you have that context.
Calling others tankie scum or authoritarian defenders for a month or two is not exactly normal civil behaviour. None of the people that criticised you ever needed to use slurs against you to make their point.
