Show of hands, please.
Who thinks it's ableist calling a #sociopath, a sociopath?
I'm open to arguments. Because, as a psych major undergrad I totally understand and condemn using mental disabilities as a slur.
However, I tend to draw the line at sociopathy.
My position: It's tough to hurt the feelings of those w/o feelings.
But, not calling it out when identified allows cover for sociopaths to do untold damage to those who do.
