I'd put that in a different category, since forever words that used to be accurate medical conditions have been slowly transformed into slurs. Idiot used to be one, for example. Now whether we need to censor these new slurs is a different matter, I'm all for polite discourse but also for freely being able to use swear words, so I guess I'm 50/50 on the issue.

Yea I never understood why retarded has people tripping over themselves to chastise you, but saying dumb or lame doesn’t solicit the same response. The inconsistency is odd.
