Why do some in the #Bitcoin community love using the “r” word, which is a slur against folks with disabilities?
I’ve never seen it more prevalent in any community besides bitcoin and bitcoin twitter to describe certain things they think or stupid in the fiat world.
But having worked with folks with disabilities, to me it’s insane and disrespectful to use that word so frivolously.
Free speech and all, but just my two sats!
