I downvoted because you said "as a parent". I completely disagree with the idea being the parent of a disabled child gives you special license to say words like that. You're not disabled just because your kid is.
I like and upvoted your comment! I think you’re absolutely right. It is a mild satire on the “my lived experience“ fad. Obviously being the parent of a severely retarded child gives me no special moral power. I will continue making crude jokes like this because even though I’m in my 60s apparently my sense of humor is still 15. That and I don’t like to give any kind of derogatory language special power of of its own.
I can’t wait till you hear my exceptionally insensitive jokes about white people, especially fat bald white men like me. Because, you know, it’s my lived experience…
Seriously, though, thank you for explaining your downvote.
