I think it's a bit overboard to say a caricature of someone with a crescent-moon-shaped head is a representative of a real group of people.

Is the one with a tricycle for a brain ableist too?

FWIW I would completely agree if they were drawn to look like they had downs syndrome or some other visual identifier of real people.

It's an integral part of a family of a very specific set of wojaks, it doesn't exist in a vacuum, look it up...

You're the one claiming its ableist, but you want others to 'look it up' to research potentials for why you think it's ableist?

That ain't gonna win anyone over to your position.

If we have to look it up, the link isn't very integral, now is it?
