A term originally used medically for people with mental disorders. The term was used as an excuse to rape, torture, and kill thousands of adults and children. It is a slur and extremely offensive as it reminds those actually struggling with mental health that somebody out there might just want them dead. This has not been reclaimed by any communities and is not a word to be used in common language or really at all.
People who would once be considered clinically r*tarded are crippled by a society that lacks supports, not their own mental health.

The word libtard is intended to insult someone by linking the person’s liberal political views and their expression to an intellectual or developmental disability: as the etymology indicates, the last part of this compound comes from retard, a profoundly demeaning term for a person with such a disability. Reliance on the disparagement of people with disabilities makes libtard, and its much less frequent companion insult conservatard, doubly offensive.
