Wikepedia states
“Much like today’s socially acceptable terms idiot and moron, which are also defined as some sort of mental disability, when the term retard is being used in its pejorative form, it is usually not being directed at people with mental disabilities. Instead, people use the term when teasing their friends or as a general insult.”
Is it only a slur if directed at soneone with mental disabilities? Is it a slur if durected at onself?
Whats lemmies take on this?
Is the n word a slur if it isn’t directed at black people or the f word?
Can a black person call themselves an nword tho? Or are you going yo tell them what they can and cant do like the old days?
No one’s telling anyone what to do, we’re just trying you it’s a slur.
Well the rules of most lwmmy communities say no slurs so you calling it a slur absolutly is telling people what they can or cant do.
