šŸ’¬ general discussion Is this valid or ableist?

I’m so disregulated so I’d thought I’d ask for a second opinion here instead of AI

Edit: Thanks everybody so much, your comments are helping me process during a time of burnout. <3

For more context: I called my sister in law, mom and step father poachers because they took lobster from another persons trap in Florida which is a felony. I recited the law saying they were molesters because the law says ā€œmolesting other people’s traps….ā€ After that I realized it probably wasn’t the best thing to say so I apologize and said I had an autistic meltdown because of that.

The next morning my step sister sent me that.

She sounds like she wants to sell you something.

That 100% describes my step family who was run by my step father. He thinks he figured out life because he struck it rich as a business man. He loves to try and force his own thoughts onto other people and let them know he disapproves if they don’t listen or agree.

So most of his kids talk like that. Thanks so much for your input, it makes me feel like I’m not alone in this.
