    Where I’m from people use it frequently, but never about disabled people. They just mean stupid. In that capacity I agree, it’s literally the same on every level as idiot, moron, imbecile, feeble-minded, dumb, etc.

    If someone uses the word to refer to a mentally handicapped or disabled person, we’re gonna fight. If you call attacking Iran retarded, I agree wholeheartedly.

      This is the correct way of thinking.

      Anyone trying to sell something different is either a psyop dipshit trying to sew division or a self-rigtheous fart smelling wokescold who was duped by the psyop.

        You don’t see an issue with prescribing your opinion as “the correct way to think”?

          I would imagine most people’s opinions on their own opinions are that they are correct

          No, I dont. Because I wasn’t prescribing “my” opinion. I was agreeing with someone elses. Now, piss off divisionary dipshit.
