I learned early how hateful and hurtful the derogatory word 'retard' is and in extension I don't like fucktard or relitard or any of the other variants. But what I do or don't like isn't how the rules are made here.I generally take to the opinion that retard is a hateful term toward the mentally disabled but words like fucktard or relitard only generally refer to stupidity not mental illness or disability.After all you can be mentally disabled and highly intelligent.
We all know that the variant of that word are using that word for a reason. And it's a hateful, horrible reason.
If you think it's okay...that's you. To me it's a disgusting bastardization of a word that's already awful.
I started the post with myself for a reason.
