Hey! I get this is a throwaway account so you might not answer, but I really, really don't like opening an article and having the first thing I see in a thread be someone calling the author a slur. There are ways of expressing insult without bringing intellectual disabilities into the mix.


For future readers: throwaway27448's comment used to say something completely different, featuring the r-slur, and then immediately edited.

Can you explain why you think the author is stupid.
