Exactly. I asked earnestly because we already know that it wouldn't be okay to use the n-slur in the same context. I want to challenge people to take ableist slurs more seriously.
I generally think that particular slur is usually taken more seriously. Most people do not like hearing it. This parody use is one of the few places I still see it and it's usually among the circlejerk humour crowd.
