I think that's a bit far. "Fat" can cause eating disorders. "Ugly" can cause low self esteem. Dunno if "gay" makes people LGBTQ. Deadnaming is essentially doxxing, although can cause distress if that old name is related to trauma.
Pretty rubbish take IMO.
That's the point you know. Kids insulting one another is to help them build defenses against the real world. I think this is like psychology 101 stuff. It's natural to do, and does - in fact - help children grow.
Do we have evidence for that?
Well, obviously this happened to Crayon Eater and they turned out fine! Complete with insulting everyone and a habit of eating crayons.
It's times like this I miss reddit's awards 😂
