    What I mean is anyone can be referred to as an idiot or a moron without isolating a select few. When you say “retard” you’re not only offending a small group of people, you’re offending everyone you call that and the group because you feel those people are lesser.

    Don’t call yourself that. And that I disagree because those other words can be used to justify a generalization while “retard” is not a generalized word.

    And I’m just going to assume what you said is an apology, but you haven’t been able to figure how to comfortably apologize to people online. Apology accepted
