I got unfriended by a Karen on Facebook who said there was never any reason to use that word. I asked her how I should explain that the timing in my 1967 Camaro was either advanced or retarded.

Exactly. The way our society is, is that all words become slurs over time. So we just keep changing to new words until those words become slurs.

I def don’t get offended when people say it and would never make a scene about someone saying it But I do cringe when I hear it and don’t personally use it anymore. Having a few actual retarded people in my family changed me as I aged
I would never call an actual developmentally impaired person retarded. I will however call retards retarded all day long

referring to someone from the far east as Oriental was racist and not accepted in today's society. Who knew??
The correct word is chinamen

I miss the retarded policeman on YouTube. That dude was funny as hell. He loved doing it and it gave him a purpose and the cry babies took it from him.

The gatekeepers get mad when the common folks aren’t afraid to speak openly using the control words that have a hard ‘r’ in them.

I mean, seriously, the "r-word"? That really is retarded.

Not too long ago (a couple of months back maybe), I was making a comment on FB and used the word retarded and FB did not let me post the comment.

Can you say they were from the Orient?

Well if Rogan said "retard" is back the 100s of millions of INCELS in America will start using it.

The resurgence of the r-word is symptomatic of a graver problem — the “apparent death of empathy,”
This legitimately makes my blood boil. The modern left sees anyone who doesn't check their ideological boxes as subhuman, yet they have the gall to wrap themselves in the trappings of "empathy"
So, calling your friend retarded is a fundamentally cruel act that signals the death of empathy. Brought to you by the side that quite literally hates you for disagreeing with them.

Oh come on, dont be mad everyone knows Rogan is the Pied Piper of American INCELS.
But I'm almost certain no INCELS post on the PT or OT.

I dropped the word ‘retard’ yesterday to a group of parents at a 5yo party standing in front the bouncy house. You’d have thought I’d just pissed on the watermelon from the look of their faces.
I kinda felt bad after since I remembered some Chicago baw had just got done telling me how great the teachers have been at helping his autistic daughter.
But I was calling my own kids retarded, not theirs.
