Explain logic to me (lemmy.ml)

Hi. So the weirdest, most annoying argument I've had just happened. Some alt-righter's logic was "Well, if I use this obscene word a lot, then i'm using it liberally, and if enough people hear it, then thAt's PRoGREssive" Dafuq crack are you smoking bro? Using hate speech/profanities/obscenities is neither liberal or progressive. Am I wrong? Explain this warped logic to me? Chuds are quite illogical. Also, I'm a bit buzzed and I can make more sense than a right-wing chud.

You use lots of ableist language. Without that I would like your post better.

Ableist language is language that is ...

...

offensive to people with disability. It can also refer to language that is derogatory, abusive or negative about disability. Ableism is the systemic exclusion and oppression of people with disability, often expressed and reinforced through language.

My apologies. I'll try to change my post.
