The company, 23, expressed regret for falling short of its standards in a statement. They acknowledged that offensive posts had been published from Polymarket’s official X account and were promptly deleted upon discovery.
When read together, the letters in the posts spelled out the derogatory term “retardio,” commonly used to insult or belittle individuals with intellectual disabilities. Polymarket confirmed that the intern responsible for the offensive posts has been dismissed from their position within the organization.
