> Making fun and ridiculing the low status

You mean like how Trump mocked a disabled reporter at one of his early campaign rallies?

No, I don't mean that. Being a cheat is low-status. Being disabled is not.

Americans actually agree on this, by and large.

  • Being disabled is a disadvantage in life, just as being low-status is. Whether being disadvantaged is "low status" or not is semantics.

    • I didn't say to make fun of people who are disadvantaged. I said to make fun of liars and cheaters and ensure that everyone is reaffirmed that lying and cheating is low status.
