...until it is someone with narcissistic personality disorder, psychopathy and sociopathy, but mostly NPD.

EDIT: There seems to be some misunderstandings about this post. It is not an attack on this community or the users here, it's just a general vent I have for the type of people that claim to be anti-ableist until it is something they don't like.

I support black rights, but any time somebody says black lives matter, I interrupt them and say that I don't think we should let black people do violent crimes, and say shame on them for enabling black criminals. But I do support black rights.

This is literally the way conservatives talk about people with NPD. It's all "I support equality", but they think equality means a bunch of ableist stereotypes about us being allowed to happen, and they oppose that. Somehow they think they can support the idea of equality for people with disabilities, while complaining any time equality is mentioned.
