It was never a racist term. Neither was Negro. Those were the polite, innocuous eays to refer to darkies and niggers until the 1960s when the kike Soviet subversion agents turned them into straw men for their nigger ape pets in the Black Power movement to work over. You should hear some of the words my grandparents used for them. Now THOSE were the actually racist terms.

its not laughable reasoning because they are not the same context
"coloured people" has always been used in within negative contexts by non-coloured people. a white person never considered or called themselves "coloured", it was blacks, indians, asians, etc who were coloured. no coloured people allowed on public transport, no coloured people allowed to vote, no coloured people allowed on broadcasted media.
"people of colour" is sort of reclaiming the term, but in a positive light. coloured people have been called "coloured" for 200 years, so its up to them how they wish to use the word when referring to themselves. it gives back some power in a way. it takes something racist and makes it empowering. this is easily comprable to nigger vs nigga and how they use the latter positively amongst themselves.
if you want another non-race related example, the same argument would be valid for the term "gay", and its mixed use throughout the past 200 years. it originally meant happy or carefree, then it was used as a derogitory term for homosexual people. eventually it was used as a way to express negative feelings toward ANYTHING; "that's gay", "you are gay". homosexual eventually reclaimed the word though and now call themselves gay and even encourage people to call them gay as they consider the word to be politically correct. even though at one point it was on the same level of faggot.
it is all about reclaiming and changing words and phrases that once had negative meaning and turning them into something positive for those who felt victimised.
would you be more offended if someone called you "whitey" or "white man"?

Retard literally means "slow"

People who get offended because of this are retarded (yes, slow. As is slow to catch the point) The word should only be offensive if the meaning of the word is intentionally offensive. Saying some one is slow is different from saying someone is a half-witted cunt.

But just the fact that I have this opinion is offensive, because people get offended by anything.

Colored person = a person who has color

Regardless, I don't think "retard" was ever a term that was commonly used in daily conversation. It's more of a technical term used in medicine, engineering and science. I've never heard anyone use it as anything other than an insult, except in my engineering textbooks, which were in English.

>1 of every 5 Spaniards don't have jobs
57% of unemployed are immigrants.

Although the number is much higher than 20%. It's probably 30% or above. Receiving some kinds of subsidies put you out of the unemployed statistics. Like if you burn your unemployement aid (one year maximum depending how long you've been working) then you have a one in a lifetime aid that you can request (lasts 4 months I think and it's 3/4 of the unemployement aid) under the condition that you lose your unemployed status. Also people that work a single day is left out of the statistics for an entire month.

They don't change it so they will have something to complain about. The process is that the reality of niggers always shits up any term you give them. Call them "beautiful roses" and eventually the reality of what niggers are will dirty up the term "beautiful roses," and a new term will have to be given. It's like how niggers shit up neighborhoods. Make a nice new neighborhood for them and move the niggers in. The niggers then shit it up, and you have to move them to a new neighborhood, over and over. Niggers shit everything up, neighborhoods, schools, countries, continents, and even the words you call them.

I don't think retard actually means slow. I think it means "to slow down". This seems to correspond with what you say it means in French; to delay.
I also think it has very specific uses. You can't really say "the bus was retarded (delayed)" or "the car retarded (slowed down)".
I think it's strictly a technical term used in science and medicine.

My interpretation of it is the parallel between the made-up bullshit today of mashing together words to find meaning that isn't there. The whole destruction of gender and decolonization concepts. It then promotes doublethink. "There is one race - the human race - celebrate diversity" etc.

Was there anything in the USSR or Mao's China that was similar to Newspeak?

> You can't really say the bus was retarded (delayed)
Yes you can. That sentence made complete sense.

And it means slow in French too, but it's usually used to infer a delay. "Il y a beaucoup de retard" means it's very slow.

If its a technical term, it's only because people started getting offended by it. I've heard older peoples on flights taking on the phone saying "they retarded my plane!" Though I'm not sure if that woman was a native English speaker

Yes. PC has it's origins in the USSR.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_correctness#Early-to-mid_20th_century

In the early-to-mid 20th century, the phrase "politically correct" was associated with the dogmatic application of Stalinist doctrine, debated between Communist Party members and Socialists. This usage referred to the Communist party line, which provided for "correct" positions on many political matters. According to American educator Herbert Kohl, writing about debates in New York in the late 1940s and early 1950s,

The term "politically correct" was used disparagingly, to refer to someone whose loyalty to the CP line overrode compassion, and led to bad politics. It was used by Socialists against Communists, and was meant to separate out Socialists who believed in egalitarian moral ideas from dogmatic Communists who would advocate and defend party positions regardless of their moral substance.
—"Uncommon Differences", The Lion and the Unicorn Journal[3]

In March 1968, the French philosopher Michel Foucault is quoted as saying: "a political thought can be politically correct ('politiquement correcte') only if it is scientifically painstaking", referring to leftist intellectuals attempting to make Marxism scientifically rigorous rather than relying on orthodoxy.[29]

But in particular, did the USSR manipulate words, like "colored people" and "people of color" such that one was politically correct and the other was not? Did they have something like Newspeak where words were dropped from the language, and things like "double-plus good" were added"?

Orwell made a big deal out of Newspeak. It was important to him. So what was he referring to that was happening at the time he was writing? There was something, but we've lost it. It went down the "memory hole."

If you use a descriptive term only.
But when you start using bullshit appreciation as "real woman" for an obese woman, or "strong and humble woman" for a transgender?
You'll have to use it sarcastically to make it an insult, and it's more difficult to tell when it is or not according to Poe's law.

Newspeak comes from here:

Orwell was briefly a proponent of that. Then rejected it with this:

There's also a bit of the old soviet naming convention of contracting things. I.e comintern, politburo etc.

You seem to be mistaking how words are used in different languages.
I mean, in Norwegian, we have the word "hvorfor", which means "why". In English, you can technically use the word "wherefore", which is the English analogue of the word "hvorfor".
However, while you might be technically correct when using this archaic term, no one is going to use it outside of a Shakespeare play, and people are going to comment on it. The same goes for "retard" in play of "delay", which I don't think was ever in common use.

>>71832783
There's a time and place to enjoy all those comments--anytime that it's actually funny and not high jacking something that is actually valid or intelligent.

Unfortunately we have to take a lot of shit, but like many things here just gotta tune it out. But if it means when i read something in depth i know who it's coming from its worth it to me. If it means when I ask Iceland bros to explain something to me i know the person replying is actually in Iceland it's worth it.

Honestly it doesn't bother me as much as the just plain stupid and not creative posting that has increased.

>"coloured people" has always been used in within negative contexts by non-coloured people.
>"coloured people" has been used negatively in some contexts whilst not in some other contexts by non-coloured (i.e. white) people
FTFY

you're a retard, you can give all the examples you want, but to imply that the term "coloured people" has only been used negatively is absolutely retarded
Your argument might've been relevant in the 70's, when the term was used by whites to discriminate other races, nowadays literally no one uses the term anymore, so to imply it still retains a negative connotation is farfetched, on top of that, simply because something used to have a negative connotation doesn't imply it's 'racist' to use it, it all depends on the context, which you actively ignore.

>this is easily comprable to nigger vs nigga
For some reason, "people of colour" are allowed to say the word 'nigga' whilst a white person would be considered a racist for using the term, this is at the very least discriminating based on race. 'Nigga' has no discriminating connotations, as it's a positive term, thus whites should be able to use it, but they aren't allowed to, because 'nigga' is apparantly equally racist as 'nigger', yet the former has never been used in racist contexts because it didn't exist (it's as you said, a reclaimed term).

Again, the same type of reasoning follows for gay people. Call them gay, and they'll shit on you, but they're allowed to call themselves 'gay' because it's a 'reclaimed' word, as if 'reclaiming' allows them to effectively decide who's allowed to use it or not, this borders Orwellian situations.

>would you be more offended if someone called you "whitey" or "white man"?
How offended I were to be doesn't matter, what matters is the context in which the phrase is said and used.
>"hey you're a nice whitey"
In no way is the word 'whitey' used in a derogatory sense, yet your reasoning would mean that the whole phrase is utter evil and offensive.

It has nothing to do with people getting offended. As I said, I don't believe retarded was ever in common use.
That being said, it's being partially phased out as a technical and medical term, due to its connection with the slur.

Also, there are plenty of words that have similar meanings, but are used differently for whatever reason. For example, you say "to cut someone's hair". You don't say "to slice someone's hair", even if cut and slice means the same thing.

>it has nothing to do with people being offended

The use of the word referring to mental illness itself is because people were offended.

>The first time the word “retard” was printed in American newspapers was in 1704. At this time, it was used in a way to describe the slowing down or the diminishing of something.
>The first time that any form of retard was used to describe mentally disabled people was during the 1960s when "there was a push among disability advocates to use the label mental retardation."
>This push from advocates was because older terms for the mentally disabled, like moron, imbecile, feeble minded and idiot, had developed negative meanings.
>Retard was not used to refer to mentally disabled people until 1985. It was widely accepted to refer to people who are mentally disabled as mentally retarded, or as a retard.

I don't know about the frequency of its usage, but that really shouldn't matter. The definition of the word hasn't changed, people's response to it has
>>
>>71836257
>I don't know about the frequency of its usage, but that really shouldn't matter.
It does. If no one ever uses it to refer to a bus stopping, then it's natural that people are going to react to that if you use it. Not because it's offensive, but because that's not how people use the word.
As I mentioned earlier, even if a word is defined to have a certain meaning, that doesn't mean it's correct to use it in every situation where a synoym could be used. Refer to my earlier cut/slice example.

>The definition of the word hasn't changed, people's response to it has
It obviously has changed, or at least expanded. Retarded is now a slur used against retards. Before 1985 it was not, so it's definition has at least changed in one way.
