In Reply to: And mental retardation is a medical condition as well, OK to call people "retards" as well then. Nt. posted by viridian on December 2, 2020 at 13:41:31:
OCD which is short for obsessive compulsive disorder is a medical term. Do a google search and see for yourself. You will find all kinds of links to various medical websites on the subject of OCD/obsessice compulsive disorder. There is a whole article on it on the Mayo Clinic Website. Now do the same google search on the word "retard" and see if you can find anything at the Mayo clinic on "retards" or any other medical websites. Did I really have to explain that to you? Do I need to cite the specific form of logical fallacy you are using here? Just in case look up false equivalence. Unless you actually do find an article on "retards" at the Mayo clinic webpage.
