This is an overused word in modern culture. When used as an adjective it can refer to someone or something that has limited mental capacity or something that is perceived to be stupid. It's often misused to disparage people with limited mental capacities as retarded people actually work hard despite their mental issues, but regular people that constantly make the same mistakes or lack the ability/desire to learn concepts properly are retarded!
Many hipsters often think everything is retarded as they cannot speak a sentence without its usage, especially since it's useful in showing displeasure. Hey, your clothes are retarded! Stop wearing tacky clothes! Many corrupt retarded people are political officials/cops as they either can hire people to work for them or judge things in a simplistic way. Nowadays, more politicians are being elected with limited educational backgrounds and it's not surprising they struggle to explain their positions as they are retarded! Many cops are experts at devouring donuts/breaking traffic rules/taking bribes/ racial profiling/ arresting innocent people or shooting innocent people, but lack the ability to think critically as that is why they jump to conclusions/make arrests on suspicion given it's part of their training and explains why many cops are retarded.

Get the retarditymug. within the contentinternet, lays two polymorphousmythology words, gorgonwars and egregorewars, where in the word "retarding" is part of the latter. this word is meant to be a POSITIVE word because all the egregorewars used in positive and gorgonwars which is negative. although of course, it is used in situations of massive friction, meaning something is slowing you down, a ralentissement.
So basically because the word started being used again, I think this is my own little compromise for the English variation given its history, rather being the friction you face while rolling up and down the hill of life dear Sisyphus as you age rather than. You are the Sisyphus in these gorgonwars.
Even more elementarily, This word exists because I was raised to believe that the word "retarded" is bad, however it has currently come back to be in regular usage, which makes it the egos cognitive dissonance buffer. A way to get into the regular usage without having the whole meaning, even being inclusive as this is indeed the very icy mountain that any human being needs to surmise.
