As a queer, disabled Jew I know full well what we are up against. Still, calling people “morons” or “stupid” bc “it’s not directed at a specific group” is like saying it’s ok to call a bigot a f*gg*t or a k*ke. /1

By using a word that is used to marginalize a group as a pejorative against a single person doesn’t make the word less problematic to the wider group it maligns. We can punch Nazis AND use better language to cal out their bigotry besides things like “stupid” or “dumb” or r*t*rd. /2
