im p sure the word cuck was used online by actual cuckold fetishists before the alt-right adopted it.

Kinda like how "virtue signaling" used to be a neutral social science term, one that describes things people do to show they're good members of a community - for example, giving a bunch of money to a church is virtue signaling because it shows everybody that you're devoted to the church and its teachings - but now it usually means "things people do that I, a right-winger, don't agree with."

Honestly any insult the recipient has to do a thought experiment to decode is a bad insult. It doesn’t help that right wing insults are largely just things right wingers are scared of being called not actual targeted insults. If you call someone a cuck and they aren’t already familiar with the term they will google it and assume you have a sexual fetish because how else would you be familiar with the term and if they are not sexually insecure and racist then it falls pretty flat. I got called a pajama boy once and even after googling it I’m not 100% sure what was being implied about me.

She was never a poster child for the movie, she was a convenient cudgel in the war against women's rights. there's no way they give a fuckin poo poo about her recantation because she was already beneficial to their battle and since discarded.

it really sucks that half a million bucks was all it took for her to contribute to undermining roe

Of course they're too dumb to realize that cow's milk contains mammalian estrogen which absolutely can affect humans.
This isn't quite accurate, since the concentrations matter a lot. From what I could find endogenous estrogen (even in men) is ~6000 times that from dairy milk intake, and in mouse studies you only see an effect if you raise the estrogen by 1000x.

The phytoestrogens in soy, by contrast, are believed to have actual effects on humans (though mostly of the beneficial kind)

The funniest part is that they think it is feminizing because soy contains phytoestrogens (which may, possibly affect estrogen levels in humans), so they like to make a big show out of drinking cow's milk. Of course they're too dumb to realize that cow's milk contains mammalian estrogen which absolutely can affect humans.

They can't even do performative masculinity right.

I don't think the facts, like, at all matter to them. It's about demonstrating you're part of one group and not another. They almost revel in how stupid it is. Part of the point is that it makes you go "well actually you're stupid" and people on the left are frequently too polite to just say "that's loving stupid." And instead give some polite explanation (like a soyboy would) of how that insult doesn't even make any sense. The logical response that they would respect is if you pulled out your freedom extender and shot them for the deadly insult.

It's also why they INSTANTLY latch onto anything bad ever done by anyone on the opposing team no matter how small and scream "See? You're just as bad as us, you hypocrites!" and never ever let it drop.

There's also the implication that the person doing <good thing> is literally only doing it to look good or get brownie points, but yeah they don't ACTUALLY mean it. It fits in very well with the whole "they accuse others of doing what they do" thing talked about over the last few pages. Usually the only people accusing others of being virtue signalers are those who do it themselves.

This also kind of reminds me of how the right insults left wingers by attacking their moral standpoint from both left wing viewpoints (such as calling them nazis and "the real racists") and from right wing viewpoints (calling them virtue signalers, soy boys, cucks, etc). However, the left wing tends to only attack the right wing using left wing viewpoints. You never see left wingers calling right wingers race traitors or whatever. I doubt it would be that effective, and would arguably be harmful via spreading and normalizing lovely rhetoric, but was something I kind of just realized.

This is played out with all the Punisher Stickers, Huge flags, crosses, bald eagles, confederate flag window decals and all that other poo poo these people love covering their vehicles with. They really do seem to be aggressively trying to say "I'm an insufferable rear end in a top hat" with so much messaging, or at the minimum sending out really loud identity signals.

It's weird to me that if I see a U.S. flag in someone's yard that I automatically assume they're an rear end in a top hat and I'm still not used to it. Seemed to start or really ramp up shortly after 9/11 with the flags everywhere.

He then tried to blame it on his wife and when that didn't work he finally fell back on the old "Well it's part of our history and we can't throw out our history" dodge

quote:

And Zorn said that even if the mask was a Confederate pattern, the flag is a part of “our national history.”

“It’s something we can’t just throw away because it is part of our history,” he told WLNS. “And if we want to make sure that the atrocities that happened during that time doesn’t happen again, we should be teaching it. Our kids should know what that flag stands for.”

Asked what the flag stands for, Zorn said it stood for the Confederacy.

When I was sewing my own face masks I went through my fabric drawer and found some fabric that had the weave and weight I wanted, but it was printed in an Australian flag pattern. I thought it'd be funny to make a mask out of that for about 30 seconds before I remembered many racist shitlords have been abusing people of Asian descent over the virus
