Is the word retard seen as bad as the word nigger? Are there other words in english that are as bad or almost as bad as these words?

No. I've never heard anyone compare the two, but maybe it happens in some bad social justice discourse. Disability-related terms with negative connotations and racial slurs shouldn't be compared to one another. Two things can be shitty for different reasons.
