The president of Argentina, Javier Milei approved the change in the denomination in the degrees of intellectual disability affected in his country. From now on, people who wish to apply for their disability pension must be categorized as idiots, imbeciles and weak-minded.

The decree was approved by the National Disability Agency (ANDIS) and immediately generated the repudiation of organizations that represent the collective as archaic and discriminatory.

The media outlet El País reviewed the information and added that for the purposes of the purpose the idiot is one who does not read or write, did not go through the glyptic phase, does not control sphincters, nor can he survive alone. The Imbecile can perform rudimentary tasks, does not read or write, controls sphincters and the weak-minded only signs, has simple vocabulary and can perform rudimentary tasks.

“The new scale is copied word for word from a decree signed by President Carlos Menem,” the information details.
