I believe it will be more in the vein of "Those people complained about having more options in a game? What a dumb hill to die on"

They'll be saying "Yup, our ancestors were barbarians. In the 1950s they would give lobotomies to people that were mentally ill. In the 2020s they would mutilate the sexual organs of those who were mentally ill. We do not look kindly onto those practices today now that we know better".

Do you think people got lobotomized voluntarily, dumbass?

There may be a bit of a difference there, but don't let the facts get in the way of your bigotry.

You want to mutilate people who have a mental illness. You make me sick.

You make me sick.

Hope it takes a turn for the worse 🤞
