Ive been seeing the past few days people on twitch making fun of people with autism and just randomly throwing the word around as an insult etc... even playing games people first insult theyve been using in games against me is "shut up you autist" :dwillhuh:

has the internet really desensitized people to the point where we make fun of people with handicaps/disabilities now just cause ? :dwillhuh:

shyt crazy :mindblown:

I joke and bull shyt about a LOT of things, but you'll never hear me call people retarded or use autism or other disabilities/handicaps against people.. what if your kid was born that way ? Wouldnt be so funny now :ufdup:

I dunno.. its hard to explain.. I got pretty thick skin, but what I been seeing in twitch chat rooms the past 2 days or so got me :sadcam: I dunno if I can fukk with that shyt :sadcam:

People say insensitive shyt online. Especially when they have a username... Brehs talking about mentally ill people "got what they deserved" pertaining to that 25 year old dude that the police shot to death the other day in STL.

:what:

I just take a step back and realize that some people's morals are different than mine or that I'm being trolled... It is what it is

You answered your own question. It's all desensitization.

12 year olds were spamming the mic, calling everybody a "******" and/or "faq" in Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare in 2007.

It's gotten, and will continue, to get worse. It's so demonic, friend. :sitdown:

I mean theres gotta be a line... even on the internet.. I never asked a company to ever censor some shyt before, but damn Twitch might needa get this shyt in check.

Is it any different than calling someone a retard?

:what: did you not read my post ? :what:

and while I dont personally call people that (because of reasons I used in my post), to the years leading up to recently, I did see it used a lot less probably because people understand that shyt aint nothing to joke bout..

You used to see in movies / comedy acts people doing shyt to mimic people with handicaps, but you rarely see it now a days too

but its been on the rise again

So who in your family is a retard / has autism? :sas2:

One of my cousins has autism.

hes the nicest person I ever met, he just processes things a little late, but he dont got a mean bone in his body, id beat someone to death if they disrespected him infront of me :ufdup:

but even if I didnt have a cousin that had autism , id still feel the same way.. Like I said, yall be jokin bout that shyt, but what if your kid was born that way, you'd still be jokin bout that shyt then ? :usure:

dont act like that cant be a reality :ufdup:

I always assumed they meant aspergers which is part of the autistic spectrum. Nowadays for some reason social awkwardness = aspergers and the new go to insult, like fakkit or a racial slur.

Besides they're trolls, dont feed them.
