I notice a lot of people use terms like “psychotic” or “psychopath” as insults and negative descriptions on here. These are clinical terms that are used to describe real people with difficulties, not boogeymen! I don’t disagree with the sentiment that these people are doing wrong, but if you wouldn’t use the r-slur or “autistic” as an insult (which you shouldn’t) then you shouldn’t use these words either. And I get the idea of calling someone delusional, but take care that you don’t just mean “I disagree with them.” Though by posting on neurodiverse I imagine I’m preaching to the choir.
Sincerely, a casual schizoaffective disorder haver.
First generation to not be able to say the F slur in elementary school. As a group on general, kitchen wise, they’re usually fucking awesome. Quick on the up take, usually not afraid to ask questions and what they ask tends to show they’re looking at the big picture where old dudes working the line are tunnel vision AF, and they don’t take shit. As a millenial, their average guys seem to be as good as our pretty good guys. Most of their worst guys are only as bad as our bottom tier average guys. There’s for sure been a bump up in decency. Generations are fake anyway, but there seems to be a general sense of solidarity between us as well, like we’re just the same people but older, Gen x is now known for its TERFs and boomers are boomers. There can be some kinda funny splits regarding pop culture stuff but aside from that, it’s basically the same people.
