Please consider retiring the “R” word from your vocabulary. There are so many other better options, and that word is an epithet that causes harm. The folks with developmental and cognitive disabilities, a marginalized community, knows the word well, and know it appllies to them.
I would never use that word as a disparaging term for people with developmental and cognitive disabilities, these folks don’t deserve derrogatory or depreciative namings, and I try to choose my words very carefully specifically so they would not look targeted towards people who don’t deserve them. If my poor phrasing is misunderstood and considered offensive towards this group of people, I would absolutely express my sincere apologies and rephrase it.
However, I will not self-censor myself, and will continue to use it, as per sense 2 of the Merriam-Webster dictionary, to specifically highlight and ridicule the idiotic behaviour of certain individuals and groups of individuals that fully deserve it in my opinion (like those considering copyright infridgement a bigger offence than privacy infridgement, in this particular example).
stop trying to be offended for other people, they already have enough to deal with, you are actually making it worst for them, giving them negative exposure
His point is that even if it may cause harm for people reading it, lecturing people about it may cause more harm because people might start resenting mentally disabled people because of it.
If you call a person with right leaning opinions a nazi, you may have pushed him more into being a nazi.
your virtue signaling is not helping is what he is trying to say IMHO

You choose to use an offensive epithet, and I choose to block you.

Wrong.
I saw the harm it did to my clients.
Clearly you have zero experience.

First of all, you are wrong. But second of all, this bullshit here is why I am immediately blocking you. Fuck off.
And who wants to watch the shit hole quality of something recorded on fucking glasses? No thank you.
