    because of retarded decisions like that

    You know you could have just used shitty instead of using a slur, which would have the same emphasis without the baggage of the other word.

      Shitty has a different meaning. Above commenter meant to say the person making the decision was differently abled with regards to their cognitive capabilities. The other is excrement.

      If you really felt it necessary to offer a synonym, you could have said “backward” … because that’s what the word actually means
