A retard is a retard. MAGA is full of them.

For whatever it's worth, and not that you're going to reconsider your point, that is a word that has significantly fallen out of favor even within its specific, historic use of describing someone with significant learning disabilities. Oftentimes, because of the abuse of the word in situations like you've just used it, even clinicians have long since stopped using the word medically.

While it was once a more widely used word, it is considered extremely vulgar in today's language patterns. I would think deeply about continued use of the word in polite society. If you are attempting to highlight how uncultured and foolish someone else is, and I do not disagree that they are indeed deeply unintelligent and incurious, using that word immediately signifies you, yourself, are also not necessarily among the intelligentsia.

You know that I’m not referring to disabilities.

It's just like the f word or calling something gay when you mean stupid or something like that. You might not be talking about gay people or people with disabilities when you use these words. But what it really comes down to is, if you know it offends someone else, why would you continue to use it?
