Does being on the spectrum give people the privilege to say "ret*d?"
Even if you agree with the rule that folks on an autism website like this should not use the R word ( I try to abide even though I don't really agree with the rule), how can you NOT make an exception in this kinda situation?
A singer belts out the word "autistic", but pronounces the word in an illiterate sounding way that you wouldn't even be able to understand if you didn't already know he was going to use the word. And their "musicianship" aint exactly virtuoso even by punk rock standards. So they sing about mental impairment while sounding mentally impaired themselves.
So its offensive to NOT give them a dose of their own medicine by calling them "ret*d"!
