      So because the right is a bunch of fucking retarded donkeys, the left is infallible. Got it.

            By throwing out a slur?

            You do realize that English is a huge language and you can pick a word that doesn’t punch down on an entire group of people, right?

              I’m literally punching down on an entire group of people, republicans.

              Also, I don’t quite grasp all the rules of slurs. I’m not making a derogatory use of the term towards someone with a intellectual disability (also, that’s a term that’s starting to pick up the same “slur” vibes, just as retard did from originally being a medical term).

              Am I allowed to use the term retard if I myself have a learning disability? What if I’m of some other demonstrably lower caste group of people in the American social order? Is that still punching down?

              I’d honestly ask those questions, but then I’d be “just asking questions” so let’s just say those are rhetorical and we can just end the conversation here.
