(Anonymous) 2011-11-26 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)Language evolves? So I can call you a retarded fag, and as long as I mean stupid and not actually disabled?
TIL: people can't be real-life activists and give a shit about things being said on the internet. Thank you for showing us how tiny your world is. It's like Tinkerbell up in there, isn't it? Where you can only have one thought at a time.
TIAL: that if I call a hispanic man a nigger he isn't allowed to be offended, because he's not black. And in fact if he does get offended he's probably just a SJ asshole. Gosh!

I certainly didn't know until someone told me. And even in my most advanced lit classes in high school, if we were reading an older book and a character was described as "lame" (in the original, disabled sense), at least half the class always had to ask what that means. Even my 90-something English teacher would describe it as "a really old world for me [disabled]".
We call people out on using "gay" as an insult because gay still means homosexuality, and when they say something is 'gay', they are implying it is associated with homosexuality and that makes it a bad thing. Lame rarely means disabled today.
Retarded is somewhat in a transition phase - people often know it means mentally disabled, but when people use it, they do mean stupid, as no one uses the word "retarded" to describe someone who is mentally disabled, and when they use it as an insult it is not by associating the target with mental disabilities but plain old stupidity. Most kids today learn its original meaning much later on than when they first realized it meant stupid.
So yeah, you can call me retarded, and as long as you mean I'm stupid and not actually mentally disabled, I'm not going to call you out on it. Because fag is still about using homosexuality itself as an insult, though, I'll have issues with that part.
