I think it's fine in its original contexts (i.e. "retardant", or to "retard" something), but could maybe be avoided in 80% of cases.
It is inexcusable to apply it to people though.
those are entirely different words; different parts of speech, etc :) fully agree but it’s helpful to think of it that way instead
I used it yesterday and feel kinda bad. Having said that, the guy I said it to was in an online lobby and I'd said one word on mic and he immediately asked if I was a baddie and told me to rate myself out of 10 for him.
I said some not okay things...
