I think the issue here is that Magicker is medicalizing bad behavior. They’re not saying someone behaved badly, they’re saying someone has a medical condition that makes them inherently evil and untrustworthy. You can say someone is being selfish, or lying, or being unreasonable, or whatever, without diagnosing them.
totes fair, i was thinking it through myself and trying to explain it is one of the ways I do that. i had to go hunting around to find that the term has always been medical.
I hope you understand why I’m treating you with mistrust. Saying that these posts are being shared with chans means that the audience is much wider than just us here, and I don’t assume that things are being written or read charitably.
How does not calling out negative behaviors help people who are themselves trying to limit them
I’m not sure, to be honest. I’ve got lots to learn in that regard. I am not OP, btw, I made another comment about that.
