Let’s pause for a moment. I wanna make sure you’re saying what I think you’re saying because I refuse to believe someone can be this stupid. Are you saying that being short and having the medical condition known as dwarfism is the same thing?
No, I’m saying that the utilization the slur midget against people who ARE short is still derogatory toward a person’s characteristics that are outside of their control, whether they are subject to dwarfism or simply below-average in height.
But let’s pause here for a moment. I wanna make sure you’re hyper-focusing on what I think you’re hyper-focusing on because I refuse to believe someone can be this ignorant as to ignore what I’m actually saying. Are you actually, truly being transfixed on whether we can insult people based on height versus dwarfism while ignoring the broader argument I am making? In your own words, can you please describe what that broader argument is so that I understand you get it? Consider this a “read-back.”
No? I was obviously referring to other derogatory terms like midget, napoleon complex, etc.
Were you? Were you obviously referring to other derogatory terms? Also, midget and napoleon complex are not even remotely in the same category.
Sorry, are you victim-blaming here?
Sure sounds like that’s not for you to decide; that is of course, if you’re taking the opposing position to mine in this thread.
Interesting for you to decide, oh great arbiter. How convenient.

And you somehow believe those affected by using the word midget to insult short people are short people? You cannot be this stupid. You just can’t.
I refuse to argue with people this lazy, having critical-thinking deficits, and/or stoned.
Good day.
You think you can argue with me. Funny.
