  He doesn't have to talk about extermination to be trivialising. He meant well, I am sure, but the dominant attitude of prejudice and assumption is a one way street. I don't imply for a moment that this guy was saying disabled people are worthless or need to be killed. That WOULD be hysterical. But I am sure you are bright enough to get the connection between trivialisation, assumption, and reduced perceived worth. The words we use matter as they direct the attention in a particular way. We should have learned by now that without vigilance attitudes and social boundaries slip. What's that saying? It only take sone good man to do nothing for evil to triumph...? If we are complacent and collude with unhelpful attitudes we allow things to slide.
