Insensitive name to people actually suffering from amnesia, (me).
- rocgf 6y agoI am sorry, but I disagree.
- Geminidog 6y agoYou disagree only because you don't suffer from this condition. You can't truly know how offensive it is without being the person who suffers from the condition. Does a white person truly know about how offensive it is to call an African American the n-word? No. He/She won't without becoming African American himself. It's the same story here.

- Geminidog 6y agoGive what a few minutes?
- Toutouxc 6y agoI'm a grown up man with a shoe size of 40 (8). Is the 2018 movie Smallfoot insensitive towards me? I mean, I don't enjoy hearing about your suffering and I certainly don't wish it upon you, but why would you care about the name? Do you think that people somehow treat amnesia sufferers with less respect when they're exposed to the name in a context that's not explicitly serious and negative?
- Geminidog 6y agoThe same logic can be applied to black people and the n-word. Shall I name a product after the n-word with no harm intended or being explicitly serious or negative? Does that make it right? No. You may not be offended by the word "smallfoot" but that's just you. You can't make that judgment for black people and the n-word anymore then you can make that judgment for the word "amnesia" and the entire community of amnesiacs.
