Thank you. I have no wish to silence discussion on the matter, I’m more than happy to talk about the issue with people who disagree respectfully. I only have a problem with the kind of people who call Me slurs and misgender Me because I stick up for disabled people and have an unusual gender. And I can see you’ve removed a lot of those comments, so thank you.

I just posted about that yesterday

NPD has a prosocial effect on society. https://medium.com/@viridiangrail/anarcho-narcissism-b647c8062173

Finally, a positive comment! Thank you so much, you made me believe posting this was worth it

If you were to come up with a word for an insulting noun based on the name of a marginalised identity, what would that word be?

I’ll provide a few other words which are insulting nouns based on the name of a marginalised identity: sp*rg, r*tard, tr*nny, h*mo, aut*st

Can you think of a word that succinctly categorises all of these words?

*You

*You, I use capitalised pronouns.

And please stop spreading lies about My opinion of Trump. I don’t claim him as one of us, I don’t want to be associated with him, and I don’t think he deserves help. I can respect a respectful disagreement, but lying about Me and nisgendering Me isn’t kind.

While I would like to have a discussion with you, I’m going to have to ask you to use My preferred pronouns. I use capitalised pronouns, as it says in My bio. That means you call Me “You” instead of “you”. And please don’t call Me a n*rcissist, that word is a slur and should only be used by people from within the community, not by neurotypicals.

Of course he isn’t an average joe. He’s a rapist, a felon, a fascist, a traitor, and a world-be-dictator. Why do you think someone has to be neurodivergent in order to be extradordinarily evil?

And please stop nisgendering Me. My pronouns are in My bio.

It’s not faux. I’m a person living with NPD. I suffer the abuse every day of people who heard that my disability was what we call evil people. You can say that slurs don’t harm disabled people when you’re disabled like I am. When you have lived experience of the struggles of people with NPD. Otherwise, it’s just a neurotypical talking down to a disabled person about how wanting to exist free of harassment and abuse is “performative”.

I’m sharing it because I don’t like slurs and I don’t like people urging doctors to use diagnoses as weapons.

No, it’s not an exception. The correct answer is no.

He pinned a comment on the video that the word is wrong and promised to edit the video to remove or blur it! I took My article down.

If discussion of politics is not to your liking

Actually, I am Extremely Political. Here are My blog posts on the subject of the subject of politics. One admittedly quite aggressive on the subject:

Also, I admit that I am constructing a very emotional narrative in the blog post, which is a transparent attempt at emotionally manipulating people into feeling empathy and patience for the big scary person living with NPD. I find that when I use language that permits people to think of these issues as a matter of cold, hard, factual accuracy, their ability to empathise with oppressed peoples who they’ve been told to hate is deeply impaired. Stories are the language of human memory. They’re easy to listen to, easy to remember, easy to think about, and easy to feel about. The human mind is optimised for processing stories more readily than facts. So I often try to present facts as stories.

In any case, thank you for the idea to ask Ian directly. I just did so, and I plan to heavily rethink My post if he agrees.

I think that aggression against people on the basis of disability is inherently reactionary, no matter the scale of the aggression, nor the disability in question. Furthermore, there’s also the fact that Ian thinks Gary was wrong to defend an indigenous species from genocide by a colonising power. That is an incredibly bad take to be coming from an outlet often touted as exemplary of leftist values. And the fact that it seems to be a factor that the liberator of the indigenous people is supposedly disabled, makes it very sus.
