covfefe 

The state of chaos and despair brought upon by the bungling of a public health crisis by an incompetent narcissist. Derived from COVID-19 and a 2017 stroke-induced twitter typo by Donald Trump.

The way Donald Trump reduced our preparedness for an epidemic, ignored the warnings about COVID-19, and persistently lied about it to the public to avoid responsibility, led to utter covfefe, as our society was irreparably scarred by the crisis.

phact 

A portmanteau of "phony fact", referring to a statement that is presented as factual but is actually false or made-up, usually intended to deceive or confuse the listener with misinformation.

A: "Obama was born in Kenya, 9/11 was an inside job, vaccines cause autism, Trump is a Christian... and I can prove it!"
B: "You don't understand the difference between a PHACT you read online and an actual FACT."

astroTERFing 

The use – by men – of fake social media accounts that pose as feminist women, to object to the rights of trans women to be recognized as women. See also: Astroturfing, TERF.

Most of the people defending this anti-trans bigot are puppet accounts with stock photos of women for avatars. Literal fake women supporting transphobia: typical astroTERFing!

cisteria 

A kind of hysterical derangement suffered by some cisgender people, afraid of transgender women being treated like women, and transgender men being treated like men.

People freaking out over trans women in bathrooms suffer from cisteria.

Comicsgate 

A low-rent spin-off of Gamergate that campaigns against superhero comics that include characters who are non-white or non-straight, female characters with small breasts, and stories that involve modern social themes; by trolling, cyberstalking, doxxing, and otherwise harassing any female, POC, LGBT, and progressive/liberal straight-white-male writers and artists who create them.

Straight White Male Virgin: "Comicsgate is a reader protest movement to get leftist politics and SJWs out of our entertainment and Make Comics Great Again!"
Otto: "You're just a white suburban punk."
