1. That post was deleted. So apparently the mods don't allow bigotry against the mentally ill.
Also, I would be remiss if I did not post this timeline here, because your accusation is really unfair to the moderators.

1. The message in question was posted at 2:04 PM.

2. You come to the ATA forum to complain at 02:17 PM.

3. You send an alert to the moderators at 02:25 PM ... AFTER YOU HAVE POSTED THIS COMPLAINT. So, you complained before the mods were even aware of the post.

4. The moderators delete the post at 2:55 PM, which is only 30 minutes after they received the alert.

2. Actually, my question to the Admins was generic and used
the specific case as an example of a very common problem.

Derisive language that marginalizes the mentally ill has been and remains pervasive in OPs and Replies. DU'ers vigorously defend their right to use it.

3. Your question was asking why the moderators permit bigotry.
The specific case you provided was not an example of the moderators permitting bigotry. It was an example of the moderators deleting bigotry.
