What's the "woke" cult logic behind capitalizing the "B" in "black" (people)? I noticed this trend take off when Clown World went Mega Clown World in 2020.

You're supposed to capitalize the race moniker. Black man, White man, Asian man. They're proper adjectives.

It is annoying seeing Black capitalized but not White in the same context.

Capitalization rules aside, this has been going on for quite a while now, even before woke shit cranked way past max setting. Think 10+ years ago.

Prominent example is Deaf instead of deaf. The idea is that they are a community™ of the hearing impaired (but don't use that term because it focuses on their disability).

I've said it before, but the "woke" sure are fixated on the word "community". The like to use it to refer to any group of people with a common trait, even if there's no actual community. They also seem to think a "community" always has a consensus about a given "woke" issue.

Douglas Murray rightfully takes issue with the use or the term 'gay community,' citing the fact that an autogynephile, a mentally ill lesbian who chopped off her tits and wears Dockers, and a morbidly obese wheelchair-bound GNC have absolutely fuck all in common with regular, perfectly sane gay folk.

It really shows how far we've progressed when you can say "perfectly sane" and "gay" in the same sentence and it not cause any shit fits. That being said, this idea of every disabilty, mental disorder, and lifestyle choice all being compartmentalized in their own homogenous ( lol homo) communities feels like segregation with extra steps and dusted with glitter.
 
"Toxic". It mostly just means "social act or environment I don't like" now. It felt like it was used for when a community had a self-perpetuating culture of acting like a sad excuse for a person, but now it just means anything the user thinks is bad or disagrees with.

To this end, I would like to answer the thread's topic question with the word "queer." It's a disgusting, derogatory word that will always have negative connotation and has only been made worse by modern degenerates adopting it as a catch-all for anyone that is clearly unfit for society. Any gay that refers to themself as "queer" has lost all semblance of self respect.
 
Periodt. I don’t know why exactly but it reeks of “yas kween” teen circle jerk and I hate that there are millennials using it to sound hip
 
"Bad faith actor". Anyone who says that is usually just a butthurt faggot who really means "someone who is trying to make me look dumb waaaah".

If I have to capitalize Black I am capitalizing White. If you correct me then I will re-correct your erroneous correction. Double red pencils for everyone. You brought this on yourselves. :mad:

We tried this politically correct stuff in the 90s and it got laughed at by everyone. All the kids in plaid shirts and wide leg pants thought it was stupid and Daria'd it at every turn. Bill Maher made a career out of it. I figured it was over and done with.

Nope.

Then we get The Current Year.

I hate this time line. It's stupid. I want to go home and play Nintendo. :mad:
 
Why do people feel the need to say shit like "this is my emotional support white boy/basic white man crush" I am physically cringing just writing that down.

I've never seen this before. Is it something usually used by woke non-whites and/or self-flagellating whites? If I had to give a guess, I'd say that it's a way to signal that the person saying this is woke and "totally doesn't like white people" so they use these phrases to kind of treat the white guy almost as a pet or lesser (particularly with the unnecessary descriptors of "basic" and "boy" instead of "man" assuming the subject is involved).

I am might just be autistic though and am reading too much into it.
 
For some reason it really pisses me off when people refer to themselves or anyone who is non-white as “brown.” Like, for fucks sake, just call yourself Latino/Filipino/Indian/mixed/whatever race you are. It pisses me off even more than “POC.”
 
Whenever they refer to "bodies" - e.g. "black bodies", "trans bodies", etc.

Not only is it unnecessary, it's just creepy. Why call someone a body as if they were dead? It's weird as fuck and I don't even understand why they do this. Maybe it's just some commie "you're nothing but a sack of meat owned by the government" kind of shit.
 
>"[X American thing] only exists in because of racism/sexism/white supremacy"
>"Current Year trend is actually the successor of [X American thing]"

For example:
>"the 2nd Amendment was so militias could hunt down fugitive slaves"
>"the 2nd Amendment is acktchually about the National Guard"
 
Anyone who uses "valid" in any situation. Complaining about work? Valid. Not liking a certain type of food? Valid. It's such a non-answer, especially in response to saying something emotionally charged. It pisses me off when people use valid in IRL, too. Not only that, but it's become the new "same."

The Assigned Male thread should be proof enough that "non-sexual kink" is an insidious little phrase.

I'll never understand why people like that use an inherently sexual term like 'kink' to describe their interest when it's apparently 'non-sexual'.
Nah, it's definitely sexual. Might not be nude or having actual sex happening but it's the same shit when someone into feet sees someones feet randomly and gets excited, even if its an innocent picture. If you're making content with that focus, you're catering to someones bedroom interests. That's sexual.
