I award titles based on merrit or lack there of. meaning I unload a ton of proof on a troll and he comes back with nut-huh I think bla bla bla.. then he is a retard.. a hard fought and won title. How ever when I offer a line by line explanation with references that all point to the same conclusion, and someone calls me stupid for simply not sideing with them, then yes that is name calling especially when I ask for references and citations and get called stupid for my efforts.
It's not the name, but the reason why it is used that makes the difference. I call someone retarded because they literally fit the definition of being slow to learn or unable to understand basic principles. I am called retarded out of frustration an an inablity to refute my topical points.
Big difference would you not agree?
