You're viewing part of a thread.
I see, you don't know what "formerly" means.
i see you don't know what most of the words in this thread mean
Do please educate me.
If we change the name of something or the category it belongs to that doesn't mean he underlying thing doesn't exist. Also, I know what formerly means.
Oh, okay, then I guess people are still 'retarded' and not 'low-functioning autistic.'
Changing the name didn't change the reality, jfc
dude that is wayyy too hard for people
You do know that scientific terminology changes to reflect accuracy, right?
That's not the argument you were making.
That's exactly the argument I was making.
No, it really wasn't.
I'm pretty sure I know what I was talking about better than you do.
There's these things called words you used to express a thought, and it clearly wasn't what you now say it was.
Ah, got it, you know me better than I do.
you were trying, but you were wrong, having misunderstand reclassification as nullification.
What?
You really wish that, that much is obvious
I really wish I was making the argument I was making? Okay...
this, however, i am all for
People can absolutely be retarded or low-functioning autistic or perhaps both.
https://www.fluentaac.com/autism-vs-mental-retardationPeople can absolutely be retarded
Wow.
And your evidence for that is a website for an app.
Jesus.
It's the first link that explained the difference I came across.
Wait, do you think people can not have mental retardation? What?
Ok, here Wikipedia instead:
"Mental retardation, also known as intellectual disability, a disorder characterized by significantly impaired cognitive functioning and deficits in adaptive behaviors."
And now you're lying about what's on Wikipedia.

Did you think I wouldn't check?
Actually, I have gotten my snippet from a different page:
See first thing under "Medicine and biology" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retardation
Your snipped links to the page I provided screenshots for and linked to. The one that literally says 'retardation' is considered outdated and offensive. Again, nice try.
Yes. The one I took the snippet from is the first one that opened when I clicked the search result. I didn't know it was outdated as I didn't do a deep dive. I also didn't know retardation got renamed either. Sry, my bad. The term retarded means slow btw. The reason it got a negative connotation is because people used it negatively. I'm fairly certain the word is still widely used and also do I really need to like check like every word before I say it because it may or may not be the official one anymore?
