unless youre talking about fire retardants, the timing of engines, or other situations where a thing is being actively retarded, dont use the r slur. Applied to people, it is a slur.
edit; y'all wanna down vote and support the usage of a slur, even when presented with reputable source evidence explaining why it is a slur. grow tf up.
You don't call retarded people retards. You call your friends retards when they're being retarded.
Leta just swap out that word with another slur and reiterate your statement:
"You dont call black people n word, you call white friends the n word when theyre being the n word."
Right, remember the hundreds of years of slavery and racial oppression that developmentally disabled people endured in this country that lead to the word retarded.......no?..... Me neither.
Comparing retarded to the N word is actually fucking retarded.
