"libtard" is a slang insult that emerged in the 1990s–2000s in American online and political discourse, combining "liberal" with "retard" to mock left-leaning or progressive people. The term draws on the offensive idea of mental deficiency to suggest that someone's political views are foolish or contemptible. It spread widely on social media, political blogs, and internet memes, often used by right-leaning or conservative speakers to ridicule liberals. The term is highly derogatory, offensive, and context-dependent only in discussions of political rhetoric; it is never neutral and is designed to provoke or insult.
