Ableism is a term used to describe severe prejudice against the disabled.

Though there are valid instances of ableism, both historically (such as Adolf Hitler's Aktion T4 program to euthanize disabled people),[1][2][3] and contemporarily (such as Planned Parenthood's targeted, eugenicist extermination of millions of babies with disabilities[4][5] and the leftist, globalist manipulation of mentally ill adolescent Greta Thunberg),[6][7] it has frequently been used as a buzzword to attack conservatives,[8] classical liberals,[9][10] and even other leftists,[11][12] for example when they use the "autistic screeching" meme.[13][14] The left accused future President Donald J. Trump of ableism during his campaign when they claimed that he mocked a reporter with a disability at a rally.[15][16][17][18] However, it was later proven that he had ridiculed several others using those same gestures.[19]

In September 2019, at one of her campaign events, Kamala Harris laughed in response to a comment by a supporter that Trump supporters are "mentally retarded." She later claimed that she had misheard him.[20][21]
