I’m with you, mammothmothman. Nothing wrong with the word retarded. Nothing wrong with being retarded (in the true medical sense of the word). Nothing wrong with calling ignorant uneducated hateful pricks retards as an insult either. People just looove to twist words and complicate language to make themselves feel morally superior. Fuck their hollow virtue signalling and fuck ‘decency’
Absolutely nothing wrong with being retarded. Its not a choice, just like being gay isnt a choice or gender disphoria isnt a choice. Racism is a choice and its holding back society therefore it is retarded.
I can see where you’re both coming from.
My counterpoint:
The Oxford English dictionary has 171,476 words that are currently in use plus 47,156 obsolete words.
Websters Third New Internationl dictionary has 470,000 words.
Idk what to tell you, when more than one person has told you to stop using a word for x reasons - it really isn’t that fucking hard to find a new word. Failing to do so, despite having over 170,000 words to choose from, makes you an asshole. Take it or leave it.
Your argument is absurd. Your facts are probably correct yet your logic is flawed. Im ok with being an asshole in the perspective of idiots, it just means idiots are less likely to want to engage with me, sounds like a win.
