You could've just as easily said "investors are morons" and had the same connotations without disparaging a group of people

ARCHAIC•MEDICINE a person having low intelligence or an intellectual disability.
A distinction without a difference. They mean the same thing.
When "moron" started getting used as a slur, "retarded" was introduced. When "retarded" got used as a slur, "mentally challenged" was introduced.
Now that "mentally challenged" is being used as a slur, there'll soon be a replacement along .
The only group of people I disparaged are Tesla investors, deservingly so.
Other types of mentally impaired people have my full sympathy, and that includes charity.
Both terms obviously should be received negatively, they are insults. That's how insults work.
I am happy to refer to more groups, not only Tesla investors, as retards too. I'll leave this as an exercise to imagination.
Maybe you are running out of things to feel sorry about.
Either way, this conversation has run its course. Have a wonderful rest of your day.
