    No no guys you don’t understand, he’s on the spectrum. You know how you always see those people on the spectrum always doing the na- uhhh … Roman salute, right? No? Oh right because that’s FUCKING BULLSHIT. On behalf of this person on the spectrum kindly fuck right the hell off with that fucked up shit.

      Hi, I’ve noticed you’ve used the phrase “Roman salute”. This phrase is now known to have antisemitic undertones. If you could kindly change it to “straight armed salute” to avoid any confusion, it would be much appreciated. Thanks! 😊🙏

      ^(I shit you not, Associated Press called it a “straight armed salute” today, lol, lmao, rjdjfbsjxkcnrnsp)

        Hi, I’ve noticed you used the term “straight armed salute”. This phrase assumes intention behind the act that we can’t know as it depends on the internal thoughts of the person. Please change it to the more journalistic “gesture” instead.

          Hi, I’ve noticed you used the term “gesture”. This phrase assumes any sort of intention behind the act beyond a friendly greeting. Please change it to “wave,” and don’t forget to wave to your neighbors! Additionally, please report any neighbors who don’t wave to you, or seem to respond negatively to a friendly wave.
