When you say "his autistic asshole", you're using autism as an insult against him, which has absolutely nothing to do with why he's a piece of shit. It's extremely insensitive to do that.

Maybe try read all of the post

What the fuck are you on about? I genuinely don't follow. I explained twice now why what you said is problematic.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I never used autistic as an insult. I specifically referred to Musk using it as an excuse for his shitty decisions. He's the one you should be pissed at.

No, you should maybe listen to people, when they point out that you're doing something in a wrong way. Why is it necessary to state that Musk is autistic while you insult him? It implies meaning where there is none. It is simply just Musk who's an asshole, nothing else.

Because he found it necesary to go on national television and try to manipulate everyone to feeling sorry for him.

Stop defending that piece of dog shit

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I did not defend him and you are missing the point. Again.

Okay, listen: You can call Musk an asshole all you want, I don't care, you don't care, we all don't care. He simply is an asshole.

But: Stop using the term autistic as a slur. It's so simple and everybody is happy.

Stop it. Last warning

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Last warning for what? lol

It's not difficult to understand that saying "his autistic asshole" implies that being autistic is bad and is being used as a slur against him. I am autistic, fuck using this type of language.

And just in case you think I'm defending Elon, I'm a communist, fuck him.

Last warning? Stop inhaling car exhaust you troll.
