If you add a K somewhere in that persons name would it be T***H?

I didn't insult anyone. I just posted a true statement. You took it the wrong way.

The meaning of r****d has changed. It used to be used to describe those in mental institutions that were unable to function on the outside.
It is used on OPP to describe lefties. So yes, the meaning of r****d has changed

It is used now as then, to describe people of less than normal perception and reasoning ability. Wait a minute, I just described a l*****t. By George, you're right.

It's not nice to call right wingers r****ds, it's highly offensive to r****ded people...it's better to call them special like trump does.
That's so special of you.

Only for retaliation, and for the purpose of proving the double standards of ADMIN on this site.
What type does that make me, Canuck?

However It's appropriate for any of Joe Biden’s supporters....but I guess that's kinda the same thing 😕 🤔 😅 🤷

I tell the t***h to all r****ded progressives. Because they are all r****ds. Or, am I wrong?
I think you have it down pat. If they aren't r****ds they are brain dead and looking for someone to take care
them.

I was under the impression r****ded wasn't one of the admin hit words, it's no different than calling the right cognitively dysfunctional...or brain dead

" cognitively dysfunctional " Wow, aren't we the fancy linguist ? I like your point, though not your example. If we can insult one another in a high tone way, we don't get suspended. We can descend into gutter language, but we must be cautious. R****d is one of those words you can play with to get near the line. I have never whined to the Admin,,,,,,,,yet. Even when a nameless person who still posts would post pornographic images and paste my name to them.
As I said r****d is a word you can do a lot with. Your post might r****d my happiness, but at least you didn't call me a r****d.

Re: "Is the use of the word 'r****d' offensive?": Yes, of course. Like, if I were to call you a "r****d", you could rightly & understandably be offended by that.
T***hfully, no. It entirely depends on who says it.

Only to liberals and academics, but then everything is offensive to them. But it doesn't bother true r****ds because they don't know what's offensive.
