"calling people 'retard' is bad" has been consensus for like twenty years but glad to see some of you are dead-set on bringing it back because it's a pillar of leftism now apparently

When even Chapo makes an effort to curb their use of it to the point that you can audibly hear them change course mid word you should probably just stop imo

I'm sorry, but if you don't see the humor in labeling the Peter Morency and Arpwel crew as being in charge of 'the DSA's Being Retarded Committee' I don't know what to say to you.

its no funnier than calling them a bunch of dumbshits, arpwel is a dumbshit and an rear end in a top hat but retard isnt an inherently funny word

To be perfectly honest I don't really use the word, an I'm not attached to it.

I would only say it while quoting someone else in a car with its windows rolled up.

With that said, your concern over someone in the world using a word is noted.

Imagine being such a CHUD you think the word retard has some magical special power that makes it funny.

It's not even as funny sounding as poo poo like smoothbrain or chud.

Just say this offensive thing with a different word then I won’t be offended. If calling people stupid is offensive the it’s offensive regardless of the terminology. If someone using a cute trick gets you over that then you aren’t coming from an honest position in the first place.

Nah, the full audio is going out free, it's just that there was an update or two that had to be cleared and posted before that one + the host of said debate is juggling a bunch of life matters at the moment.

Why would you call him a homophobic insult of any kind? The guy's a collosal creep, the most repugnant facet of his personality is intrinsically tied to his warped heterosexuality, maybe attack him on that basis.

idk I feel like cocksucker has lost its homophobic connotation, or maybe I've just been watching deadwood

like I find it hard to imagine cocksucker being deployed to mean "one who sucks cock"

same way "motherfucker" doesn't mean stepdad
