6. Not funny

This isn't the first time I have seen jokes here making fun of people with intellectual disabilities. I worked with children and adults with low IQ and to insinuate that trumpers are low IQ is a slap in face to people with intellectual disabilities and their families. Would anyone here find it funny if we replaced the low IQ with a woman or a person of color? I doubt it so let's don't do it to people with intellectual disabilities. Many of them are sweet, kindhearted, caring people. They do not deserve being maligned in that way.
