Just like when you said "neurological and neurodevelopmental are different categories" you're making rhe same mistake again. "Disorder" is not synonymous with "DISABILITY".
That is ableist as fuck not to mention disgustingly wrong
You're confusing disorder and disability.
Not to mention using grammar wrong and then getting upset when someone points out how wrong you are.
I did not in any way insist on insulting you. You project that because youre insecure and I pointed out that you're using words wrong and making mistakes which amount to the same thing as "spaghetti and pasta are different categories."
So when you make a mistake people arr still supposed to mind read around it?
You made a mistake. You are literally unable to Admit to it.
Honestly that's one confusing as fuck explanation that's pure avoidance. Just try uttering "I was wrong" it's really not that hard.
But no, crying to mods because people agreed with me and my comments about how wrong you are.
