if you’re demeaning each other for being mentally disabled it’s not made in good faith though. you’re still making fun of people who are mentally disabled by making those jokes. it’s weird as fuck. maybe you don’t mean to be mean to them but you should probably unpack why you think making fun of intellectually disabled people is funny.

there’s literally no way to make those “jokes” where the butt if it isn’t shitting on people who are more disabled/have higher support needs than you and the gag is always something like “at least you aren’t like Them” which is gross.
