In other words, the woke cult thinks people can be pigeonholed into black-and-white categories of "marginalized" or "oppressor" in a hierarchy of "privilege" based on identity ("identity politics").

And yeah, there's actual "racism" going on against whites in places where blacks are the majority.

That reminds me of another phrase I hate: Racial justice.

I used to assume that racial justice meant whites and non-whites shared the same rights, liberties, civic duties, responsibilities, and culture. That we could peacefully coexist and that it didn't matter what walk of life you're from. All that mattered was who you are, not what you are.

Lo and behold, it turns out racial justice is actually more like racial revenge. It has nothing to do with equality, sharing, or peace. It's all about hate and revenge. Just like social justice, racial justice is a nihilistic ideology that masquerades as a message of love. While it gloats about collectively, and retroactively, punishing white people, it does little to nothing to improve our overall quality of life. Sure, it might be momentarily cathartic for people like black nationalists, among others, to say they got whitey. But in the end, they even bring themselves down so they can get their fix of bloodlust. Then it's no surprise they turn on other non-white people. Including each other.

As corny as it could be at times, I genuinely miss when America could be thought of as a melting pot. Now we're like a severely plugged toilet with assorted biowaste floating around it in.

Reminds me of a commie revolution where people who supported the old government are persecuted.

Like I also said, I think "-ism" words like "racism" and "sexism" shouldn't have been invented - they seem to inherently promote the idea that people are grouped into "communities" of "marginalized" or "oppressor". Such "-ism" words are like the foundation of Current Year woke insanity. Stuff that really is "racist" or "sexist" should be called stuff like "being a jerk" or "a dick move" instead.

It's like how the concept of "hate crime" reeks of identity politics - a crime should be prosecuted as what it really is, rather than throwing identity politics "hate" into the mix.

This cuts to the heart of why I loathe leftism.

Leftists reject the fact that people are, generally speaking, possessed of this thing called agency, and are by and large responsible for their own lot in life. There are exceptions, there are true injustices where someone can do everything right and still lose.. but those are the exception, not the rule.
 
"Mask it or casket"-a favorite of COVID cheerleaders on social media. The past year and a half has done wonders for my already rabid misanthropy. They must make frequent visits to a chiropractor due to patting themselves on the fucking back so often.

Porn as a suffix for collections of non-sexual stimuli is obnoxiously inapt. It just brings up the idea of mindlessly consooming pure stimuli while blue ballsing yourself simultaneously.

"Ruin porn" as a description of photo galleries of abandoned buildings would be my contribution to this term/trend. Unless people are posing lewd or having sex in these buildings, there's nothing pornographic about buildings left to decay. People that go overboard with their interest in abandoned buildings, though, might have an obsession or other issue, but porn isn't it.

Idk if there's an english equivalent, but in Sweden PC-types are now calling disabilities "variations of function". It's ridiculous. If I've got just one leg it's a disability, not a god damn "variation".

This reminds me of the term "neurodivergent" which seems to be little more than a euphemism to downplay mental issues.

Whenever I see or hear the phrase, "hate crime," it makes me wonder if anyone ever had a perp come up to them and say, "I like you, so give me your property or I'll blow your brains out." 🤷‍♂️ 😛

Flippancy aside, I agree that any crime with an element of premeditation should be prosecuted as such without the need for cutesy labels such as "hate crime" that make crimes more about identity of the victim than the actual act. Most of the time I see the label being applied, the accused didn't even take the victim's identity into consideration.
 
I never liked the term 'toxic'. It's just a word used to brush people and things away, but these days you ought to press the person saying it to use real language and explain themselves better.

You can't say colored person, but you can say person of color.
 
"Sex positive" They make it sound like it's someone who just doesn't care what people do in the bedroom as long as it's two consenting adults, but mostly the only people that use it are weird perverts that have to broadcast their sex lives and accuse anyone who's uncomfortable with it of being a prude, sex negative, kinkshamer, etc.


Also I'm glad to see so many people said "yeet" on here. I always associate it with the type of girls who were obsessed with dan and phil in early 2010s and like lawl random XD humor

It's been mentioned before but phrases like "brown people" or, especially, "brown bodies." It's really perturbing when you remember, well, WHITE PEOPLE CAN TAN. I'm of 100% European descent and I'm brown as hell during the summer months because I go hiking and hunting all the time. You can tell how long my shirt sleeves are when I'm shirtless because of the dramatic ass tan line. It's just so fucking stupid.

I hate the term "brown people" because it's conflating numerous ethnicities that often have very little in common. Black people in the US are an actual ethnic group with a shared history and culture. "brown people" is just a wokelord term for people who want to virtue signal about how much they care about POC without having to care about the different issues that concern Mexicans vs Puerto Ricans vs Arabs vs Indians

Any white people using black slang. Even worse, intentionally misspelling words to how it's pronounced in jungle speak. It has to take more effort than just writing like a normal human being and has the added effect of making you look like a retard.

Akin to that: people who not only use the word ‘like’ as punctuation in speech, but also take the time to type it unnecessarily when writing.
It’s a public admission of immaturity and stupidity.
 
"Peak."

"We have reached peak X."

You didn't make that joke up. Shut your mouth until you have a revolver to put in it.

"my body my choice"

Of course one has choice, but not all choices are good.

And it's ironic coming from the woke cult that wants to deny agency, as @Czechem Republic said.

Most people who say that only use it for abortion/sleeping around, but then will get mad at white people for having dreadlocks which is pretty hypocritical imo. If you're gonna say it be consistent at least
