I think you’re missing the point of the original comment. Describing modern conservatism as a disability at once absolves conservatives of their responsibility not to hold abhorrent views, by classing it as a characteristic they have no control over, and lumps people with disabilities into a group that, in a non-insignificant number of cases, wants them dead or sterilised.

That’s why the commenter was upset with you; not because you’ve criticised eugenics, but because you’ve been massively insensitive, and when someone pointed out that insensitivity you became defensive and attacked them in return.

I don’t think sane people are able to believe in things like Jewish space lasers, so I don’t think your average GOP voter should be held accountable for believing that kind of nonsense - they should be provided mental health care and an education in critical thinking skills. The people spreading those insane lies are a different story.

Look, it’s clear that you hate disabled people quite a bit, and that’s what I and others take offense to, not your criticisms of conservatism…

Are you a liar, or is the issue that you have toddler-tier reading comprehension? Let’s parse this out and see - what’s the basis for your wrong, not to mention stupid assumption that I hate disabled people?
