Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

OK, what was really going on is that I was reading a blog post from a comrade about how many phrases that are often colloquially used are actually ableist/sanist. And in that blog post, it mentioned a lot of phrases where there weren't any slurs per se, but were still considered ableist/sanist, such as the aforementioned "turn a blind eye".

Probably should have led with that and a link to the post instead of the vagueposting that got people suspicious.
