[tomjn]

Add a slur for irish and travellers, and a racist anti-downs syndrome slur, and a slur directed at people with cerebral palsy

Mong

There was a theory that people with downs syndrome were due to mixed breeding between races, specifically mongolians, and that people with downs syndrome must have mongolian ancestry if you dig far back enough.

The word “mong” derives from the word “mongol” and “mongoloid”. Dr. John Langdon Down, who discovered Down’s syndrome in the 1860s, used “mongolism” and “mongoloid” to describe the syndrome as he stated that there were similar physical characteristics of people with Down’s syndrome to people from Mongolia and Mongoloid race (those of Asian ethnicity). This phrase was used until the 1960s, when scientists petitioned to use “Down’s syndrome” instead of “Mongolism” or “Mongoloid” as they were embarrassing terms for Chinese and Japanese scientists and academics to use this word to refer to the syndrome.
