I had to check when that account was made because I knew there was no way pre-Elon Twitter would have allowed an account named "retard finder". Sure enough it was December 2024.
The word retard seems to be making a comeback. I even see it on reddit now when I peek in over there. They all have to say "regard" and "regarded" though because of the sitewide filter.
It's funny, really. I still hold some of my old liberal values, in some respects, but I'm just so fed up with all this nonsense.
It was always, dare I say, retarded, that they said the word "retarded" was a no-no word. It was always used against everyone but the actually mentally retarded people. You don't call actual retards retarded; they can't help it, and are often actually nice people.
You call people who aren't retarded retards, because they don't have an excuse for being retarded. That's how it always was, and it never should have fallen out of favor. It's a massive cultural victory that it's coming back, as "uncouth" as it may be.
Political correctness was always wielded as a weapon against us, and was never in good faith.
'Gay' and 'faggot' and 'retard', great insults, fantastic words, we should never have stopped. Glad they're coming back
Wonder what else will return. Queer won't be too hard, they're using it positively. But it sounds too 'old timey'. Nigger maybe? If that women with the kid is any indication, it's now received a bit more positively when they act like niggers.
