I could see how politicized media could morph that into "disabled people should just die" for clicks, though.

It was a stab at women, actually. No, I don't regret it.

It just depends on how much you're willing to sell your soul... in order to amuse yourself.

It is helpful to at least be able to represent your ideological opponents accurately. (Although I understand it is tempting to deliberately misrepresent them)

You're three points for republicans informs me that you spend nearly all of your time within an informational bubble.
