My sons friend called a retarded looking kid a retard and got suspended for "muh hateful speech". Had me thinking, what insults are still usable 2024? Isn't eliminating people from using nigger, faggot and retard as pejoratives the start of the road to newspeak?

Read "Ninety Eighty Four"? Specifically where it's revealed that they are actively abolishing words so in the future rebellion will be functionally impossible?

How ridiculous it sounded?

Isn't this exactly what Orwell was writing about?

I used to work for a company called ARC back in the 90's. At that time, ARC was an acronym for Advocates for Retarded Children. Now it stands for Advocates for the Rights of the Challenged. Retarded was a medical designation back then, but they used to call retarded people morons. Apparently calling retards morons wasn't humane, so they changed it.

I bet if your son's friend called the retard a moron he wouldn't have been suspended, even though it's functionally the same.

Long story short, they've been doing this shit a lot longer than most people realize. Negroes changed to niggers, which changed to colored people, which changed to blacks, which changed to African Americans, which is now people of color. Kind of circled around, right? Give it twenty years and they demand that you refer to them as niggers again.

I was calling them niggers after it was cool and before it was cool again. What can I say, I'm a fan of the classics.

I don't care what you call it. My short time as a tard wrangler has left me with little sympathy for mongoloids.

Part of my job consisted of making sure they didn't masturbate in the common areas. There was a mean little retarded midget named Patrick that lived at the group home. Fucker loved to beat his meat to the game show channel. The day I quit, this fucker is going at it on the couch in the living room and I told him to stop. Fucker waddled over to me and punched me in the gut with the hand he was using to do the five knuckle shuffle. I ain't putting up with that shit for $10/hour, fuck that noise.

It is newspeak not the road to

Using synonyms is a fun game, especially if it’s an older word that normies aren’t familiar with. Ultimately it’s still cucking to political correctness and you should use the real slur whenever possible. Niggers, faggots and retards need to be reminded of their place.

Clear communication is effective communication. A spade is a spade and a faggot is a faggot.

Controlling language is a method to train the subject to constantly be doing mental checks to verify they're satisfying external power's desires. It conditions the mind to be in a constant state of seeking approval. It makes the subject very pliable and responsive to suggestion. It's also why they've ramped up the set of banned words, the severity of being caught using them, and all the "pronoun" nonsense introduced in recent years.

It really doesn't matter, the language thieves and manipulators will make up anything appalling to get you to agree with them that it's bad.

Nigger and faggot never started out as pejoratives, it is just how we adjusted our language and terms of use over time. There's still evidence in how the words are used by the people who use them the most.

Personally, these days I use the insult "low-thinker" a lot. Calling people stupid, dumbasses, and fuckhead and whatever else you can think of just doesn't have the same impact it once did. It's a lot more fun to make up new insults and see how people wind their brains around trying to comprehend how they were insulted, not just that they were.

You dumb shit.

Before feminism and the internet, your mother would have said "Gasp, Tommy don't you use that word". An you would only use that word with your friends, where no ladies could over hear you. You would hve been thrown off a bus or out of a restaurant for swearing.

Big money feminists stole every bit of the power of moms.

Religion is women's business. Morals are the business of religion. It was their teenage daughter's business to say "Eww marijuana?! What a creep", and we wouldn't be losing our men and boys to drugs.

Banning any word is pointless because the reason you used the word still exists.

Just keep coming up with new shit for how you feel.

Or if you don't like someone completely exclude them from your friends circle because it's easier.
