Maybe you shouldn't link to a mental disorder to insult people.
Shame on you.
This is about people who are in denial. Are you in denial? If not, you're not applicable for the comment I wrote.
If so, then get some help.
No, this is about an asshole that thinks "mental illness is an insult I should use to describe people I don't like".
It's always the people who aren't part of the mentioned group jumping to their defense.
Do you think left-leaning people with BPD are unhappy at the news about Trump? Certainly seems like you know them better than they do themselves.
You don't know me, you don't know my health or who I am, yet you just assume to discredit me as a bleeding heart or whatever.
First of all - do you really think having a mental illness is something that needs to be "defended"? Are you really that unempathetic?
It doesn't need to be defended.
Equality is treating people the same regardless of their condition. What you're doing is divisive by jumping to the defense of a group that can very well defend themselves.
But that is again, under the assumption that what I said was an attack and not a recommendation 🤔. Which makes me think even more that you felt insulted by the Trump news.
Yes, the group famous for the ability to defend themselves, the mentally ill. Bravo.
Do you think all mentally ill people are complete vegetables or something? That's somehow more offensive than what you're accusing me of.
This is black and white thinking. Pay attention when you use words like: All, every, always, never, hate, etc. They narrow your worldview and the ability for others to understand what you're really trying to say.
