bearodactylRecently I’ve heard everyone saying the word ‘schizo’ and I know it’s just the latest buzzword that everyone says to fit in or whatever but I really feel like we can be more creative than calling someone a legitimate mental health disorder
I’m sure this is going to sound like some carebear shit but I also find it weird how prevalent the use of words like “retarded” is. Obviously this isn’t limited to TF2 but we’ve largely cleaned up to not accept people saying transphobic/homophobic/racist/sexist shit, why is it okay to say stuff that’s offensive to mentally disabled people?
It’s not going to change overnight but I feel like people should be more aware about it and try to not say stuff like “this guy has downs” “this guy is autistic” “that was a schizo bomb” “that play was so retarded”
I promise u will be perfectly fine with any number of other words that don’t make those of us who Go Outside and interact with normal humans IRL feel uncomfortable
ur sayin i cant say rtarded OR THE NWORD? GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD WHAT AM I EVEN DOING HERE ANYMORE THIS COMMUNITY IS TRYINT O CONTROL MY BRAIN AND I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE
