Cancel Culture isnt real tho

I'm sorry, if I'm Bey or Lizzo, I will have to tell them that it's in no reference to that at all.
It's simply me going off

I’ve seen plenty of Twitter arguments made that P**** is a sexist term
Dumb: Similarly, we use "dumb" to say that someone or something isn't intelligent, but the word "dumb" refers to a person who is unable to communicate verbally.
Lame: We say "lame" when we mean something is boring or dull, but "lame" actually refers to lower body parts that don't function properly for walking.
Spastic: When someone is behaving in a chaotic or erratic manner, we call them "spastic." The term "spastic" really refers to muscle tightness and contractions caused by cerebral palsy or multiple sclerosis.
Good. This line disgusted me and honestly ruined the entire project during my first listen. I started shaking and vomiting uncontrollably and began having an extreme anxiety attack after hearing her say that word…
Instead of Saying
Stupid, retärded, etc.
Dumb
Crazy, nuts, psycho, etc.
I'm so OCD.
I'm obsessed with X.
I'm ADD about X.
Lame
Blind leading the blind
Falling on deaf ears
Barren
Crippled
DerpSay This
Ignorant, dense
Ignorant, dense
Bizarre, outrageous
I'm particular.
I'm enamored with X.
I'm unfocused.
Boring, unexciting
Unknowledgeable
You didn't hear me.
Desolate, unfruitful
Disabled
Ignorant, denseCrazy, Nuts, Mad, Psycho, or Insane: "Wow, that's crazy!" may not seem like a harmful statement, but if you think about someone with a mental health condition hearing that statement, it's easy to realize that it is. So instead of using one of those words, try outrageous, bananas, bizarre, amazing, intense, extreme, overwhelming, or wild.
Quote from a recent Matty Healy interview that pretty much sums up this entire controversy:
He uses the recent news story about the musician Lizzo using an ableist slur in a new track and the discourse around that as an example. “Nobody was sat at home with their partner coming over to them going ‘Babe, you OK?’ And them going, ‘…It’s just this Lizzo thing.’ You know, that’s never happened. It doesn’t happen. People don’t care like that. And we shouldn’t pretend that we can have the ability to care about everything.”
