it’s impossible to convince anyone who refuses to see. all that’s left is to openly mock them in their refusal.
and before you make the assumption that I’m refusing to see, let me reject that opinion. I see the term “retarded” is triggering to some, frankly I don’t care. a word is a word and unless directed at you shouldn’t be a topic that causes an emotional response.
“this board game is retarded” is not the same as “you are retarded”. much the same as "people are the worst " is not the same as “you people are the worst”.
it’s a descriptor that modifies the intensity and volume of the rhetoric.
this brand of censorship is annoying as best and infuriating at worst. anyone who is triggered by words in context needs to get over themselves. the world doesn’t need to cater to you and your insecurities.
downvote or mock me all you want, I won’t change my position just because a bunch of people and their infantile preferences demand it.
