    I don’t really think there’s a way to be more tactful in some conversations.

    Perhaps you’re right to an extent, but I at least shouldn’t have called her an idiot. She is correct that it is ablest language, and I know better.

    In any case, when I thought of it in terms of a high person saying something I consider ignorant, irl, of course I wouldn’t go off on them. And when I look at it that way, regardless of whether the person on the other end is high, sober, whatever, sometimes, I could afford to be more patient.

    Depending on the person, of course.

      The person you’re talking with hates women. Control+F his post history with literally any misogynistic term you can imagine. I’m not sure you’re going to have much luck talking about ableism with them, but you never know.
