I've known a number of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. They're often quite kind-hearted, loving people. Musk is not. You don't need to insult them twice by comparing Musk to them, and using hateful terminology while you do it.

Maybe call Musk an asshole, a nazi, a shitass fucking fleck of rotten cumstain stuck to Trump's taint instead.

Don't forget "a cunt". Sorry... I'm Australian and not calling Elon Musk a cunt feels wrong.

He's definitely a Nazi cunt by Aussie definition. But lacking the warmth and depth, he fails to meet American criteria.

Idk, I like re-defining that word to be used on people like him. Just call people with actual disabilities “handicapped” or “disabled”

Edit: whoever downvoted me def calls special needs people “retards”. That’s not cool
