The r-slur : r**tard is used against disabled people and is increasingly hurtful it is mostly used by high school sometimes middle school kids who think it’s funny to use a slur. It originated from the word mental retardation Which was a medical term in 1961 for people with intellectual disabilities, through the years it has become a insult used way to frequently in everyday language. people who use it often have absolutely no regard for the damage their doing
In 2010 Barack Obama signed Rosas law which changed the word mental retardation to intellectual disability

Decent human being: you need to educate urself.
Ps : I know it might be hard to speak up about it I find it hard myself too. That’s why next time I hear someone say it I’m going to build up all my courage and try to educate them!

The R-Slur/R-Word is a word used against disabled people. The actual word is r£tard/r£tarded. It was changed to a slur in 2010 by Obama.
Its just as bad as any other slur, like the f-slur (used against queer people) or the n-slur (used against POC).
You should never use it. Also, its not "medically correct."

John: That kid is such a r£tard!
Taylor: You shouldn't say that, because that's a slur. It's used against disabled people and it's like calling a gay person a f4g.
John: No, it's medically correct!
Taylor: No it's not.
John: Whatever snowflake.
P.S you're not a snowflake for telling someone not to use a slur. they're just some asshole using the r slur for no reason.

The R slur is used towards people with mental disabilities(like nd people for an example) it’s used to be ableist but sadly it’s normalized

Actually decent person:Don’t say that it’s offensive!

anyways be an actual decent person, the r slur is offensive to us ND people and more.

The "r slur" is a substitute to saying the word retarded, which is commonly misidentified as a slur. In reality, the reason it's used is that it literally means to delay/ to slow, and not used as an "ableist" term anymore. Eg,
Retarded means slow, literally or figuratively.
Retarded can mean stupid (mentally slow), as in:
He is retarded (slow, not used for disabled people obviously)
What a retard
It can also be used formally as a substitute to the word slow/delay:
The plane's thrust was retarded
These clothes contain a flame retardant
Example of someone who doesn't say the word "retarded":
I don't want to say the word retarded as it's ableist, so I say "r slur"
