It's weird like that, over the years I had supervisors twice my age who would language police anything that may even be possibly perceived as offensive and yet they would never hesitate to use the word that starts with R and end in tarded. It's not a word I use because I have a little brother who I love very much who's a special needs child, and yet so many people use that word and also take moral high ground over others, zero self awareness. Bottom line it's just hit and miss.
