Can someone explain to me the "dummy" and "sanity" exceptions? I have never even considered that these words might be offensive. Perhaps not emotionally neutral

Can someone explain to me the "dummy" and "sanity" exceptions? I have never even considered that these words might be offensive. Perhaps not emotionally neutral, but then why not "poor" (performance) or "silly"? Is there some context that I'm not aware of?

- lostapathy 6y agoThis just means new words/phrases will be offensive and need purged in a few years. Lest we forget, “retard” used to be the kind way to describe mentally challenged people when earlier phrases became offensive.
