Wikipedia is an encyclopedia for educational purposes anyway so how is this an equal comparison
I would hope that by engaging with me, people learn how to understand and interact with people who have TS. I actually spend large portions of my stream talking about depression, mental health, and life skills. Education is pretty central to my streams.
I can't offer help, advice and education unless people understand the difference between my speech, and my tics. I know that my tics are not what I feel or believe, but other people don't. I still worry about saying or doing these things, so they become tics.
I also put my hands in fire, punch my own face, throw my coffee on the floor, break expensive streaming equipment etc. More often than not I am the one who receives the brunt of these types of tics. I don't benefit from any of them. I do wonder why you think I would want this.
Okay but what does this have to do with you not thinking those words should be offensive on the first place?
I understand people being offended if I was encouraging others to harm Jews or hate black people, that's not what I'm doing. I'm simply trying to engage with people despite my condition. I put warnings in the titles of my streams so people know I have tourettes before viewing.
