Hey did you notice the "autism" in my name? Maybe I have more perspective to speak on what words are and aren't slurs against my group than you do fuckass.
Language evolves. "Mental removedation" is not longer recognized as as medical term, its use in modern times is generally regarded as a slur by the disability community and is treated as such in pretty much all communities that actively try to include neurodiverse people are oppose ableism.
So to answer the question of "ince wshen". The answer is "for at least a couple decades now". I was actually hit by my friend with a severely disabled brother for using it back in like 2006.
I am active in the disability rights movement and pretty much all of us that are agree the word is a slur and there is no excuse to be using it. Its not a "word for mental capacity" anymore and hasn't been in a long time. Plus, insinuating that mental disability is a BAD thing is ableist on its face.
Jesus fuck, people need to grow a spine. There are much more pressing matters to cry about. Half the fucking planet is on fire but no, let's cry about a word.
I grew up on the obese side, was made fun of for it my entire childhood. Do I get offended when I am called fat? No I laugh it off, because it's true. At some point it's better to not be offended all day
We can can care about more than one thing at a time lol. Do you also think black people should just "get over" the n word because global warming exists? Or gay people with the f slur? Do you think that women should stop complaining about sexual harassment in the workplace because global warming exists? Those are often "just words" after all. I care deeply about global warming and want to do things about it, probably more than you do, but that doesn't mean I have to be ok with words meant to insult and attack me and people like me.
Idk if this rhetoric will work with you because you probably do think those things, at least about the slurs.
It's pretty clear the user autism dragon has a spine, that's why they're telling you to back off instead of accepting you using a term they find hurtful
That is the thing though, until you abolish class contradictions states are the most effective way of protecting the revolution and suppressing the bourgeoisie. So authority does equal self defense in a real, meaningful way.
No, since states can get couped. The most effective way of protecting the revolution is gathering the masses which can happen without the state, indeed, it has happened multiple time throughout history.

Anarchists in civil war in spain (until some of them decided to fuck off), I would say the makhnovshchina defended itself pretty well with the scarce resources they had, greek anarchists with their decades old squats, bolivian grassroots movements who helped Evo Morales get in power in Bolivia, etc.
I know you're being cute but "soviet" is indeed a word in English: http://dict.org/bin/Dict
Soviet
adj 1: of or relating to or characteristic of the former Soviet
Unionor its people; "Soviet leaders"
n 1: an elected governmental council in a communist country
(especially one that is a member of the Union of Soviet
Socialist Republics)
And it means what I intended it to mean, the official state ideology of the USSR: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideology_of_the_Communist_Party_of_the_Soviet_Union
Anarchy and Communism are not the fucking same, what a removed meme
They have the same basic endgoal. Also stop using the r word.

Why are you talking like Ebenezer Scrooge
thats why there's a slash separating them, also anarcho communism exists
As an anarchist-communist, to me they're pretty darn close.
Abolish capitalism, smash the State.
Good luck teaching that difference to the typical 'murican
Let's get to work
There is overlap especially when you don't confuse communism as the broader framework with state communism or even worse soviet communism.
Have you read "On Authority" by Engels?
I have, its a terrible "rebuttal" of anarchist criticism of marxism, conflating self-defence with authority.
That is the thing though, until you abolish class contradictions states are the most effective way of protecting the revolution and suppressing the bourgeoisie. So authority does equal self defense in a real, meaningful way.
No, since states can get couped. The most effective way of protecting the revolution is gathering the masses which can happen without the state, indeed, it has happened multiple time throughout history.
Could you point to examples?
Anarchists in civil war in spain (until some of them decided to fuck off), I would say the makhnovshchina defended itself pretty well with the scarce resources they had, greek anarchists with their decades old squats, bolivian grassroots movements who helped Evo Morales get in power in Bolivia, etc.
And the fact that Engels wrote it proves that there were people in the movement even in those early days who disagreed.
I have an idea of what a state is, but what's a "soviet"? That's not an English word.
What does "soviet" mean in Russian?

That sounds bland, I like the idea of council communism better.
How do you say "council communism" in Russian?
