  • The Cooption of Internet Political Discourse By the Right



    Let me Google this for you.

    Cuck. In which cuck is used in much the way I describe. Interestingly there are a lot of women profiles posting in accordance with the stereotype. I wonder if this is a parody or if it's entryism. I'm sure some of them are sincere. If you want an actual far right person using 'cuck' in a similar way look at this use of cuckservative. Sorry for linking to a far right blog.

    Snowflake. In which snowflake is used in much the way I describe.
    Eg:
    Replying to @ThomasNovth @realDonaldTrump
    @ThomasNovth needs to re-think what it means to be an American. STOP DEMONIZING REPUBLICANS AND START SUPPORTING AMERICAN VALUES- #snowflake

    Also 'quit being a victim, #snowflake'.

    For discussion of SJWs, look at this bollocks. Contains choice picks like:
    Most people who get offended are somewhat retarded, and the only remedy is offending them. #SJW #PoliticalCorrectness
    . You can see it's pretty similar to snowflake. The equivocation between 'snowflake' and 'SJW' is something I didn't write about in my OP, but it's pretty easy to notice.

    For cultural Marxism, look at this , has things like:

    If you're fed a steady diet of #CulturalMarxism, which is what "African-Americanism" essentially is, it takes nothing short of divine intervention to avoid this PERPETUAL VICTIM mindset. That's why @UnhyphenAmerica stands against the cancer of Leftism.

    and 'let's see what we can call racist today, healthy food!'. It's such a broadly appplied trope even Wikipedia documents it.

    For the perception of identity politics, this is reasonably representative.
