From the French 'sanitary cordon', the meaning of CORDON SANITAIRE varies by vernacular context as follows:
1) In medicine, CORDON SANITAIRE is the restriction of movement of people into or out of a defined geographical area, such as a neighborhood, town, region, or country, originally denoting a barrier used to stop the spread of infectious diseases. See Example 1.
2) In politics, CORDON SANITAIRE is the refusal to cooperate with certain political parties. Often this is because the targeted party has an ideology perceived as unacceptable or extremist. See Example 2.
3) In international relations, CORDON SANITAIRE is used generally to describe a set of buffer states that form a barrier against a larger, ideologically hostile state and specifically as a metaphor for ideological containment referred to "the system of alliances instituted by France in post-World War I Europe that stretched from Finland to the Balkans" and which "completely ringed Germany and sealed off Russia from Western Europe, thereby isolating the two politically 'diseased' nations of Europe", the latter being the phrase's paramount use. In this sense, CORDON SANITAIRE is synonymous with the term 'limitrophe state(s)'. See Example 3.

Example 1: If turds were used as brick and mortar, the White House could erect a CORDON SANITAIRE surrounding Washington, D.C. to protect the nation's capital from COVID-19, thusly protecting Emperor Donniegog Turdstain from the virus--not to mention building His Excellency's 'Immigrant Wall w/ Mexico' at the cost of spent waste.*
Example 2: Despite endangering the U.S. (and world) on a daily basis, perpetrating crimes of treason, running candidates on a platform of hate and National Socialistic dogma, the Democratic Party refuses to place a CORDON SANITAIRE around the Republican Party in order to stymie the GOP's Moscow-supported, FSB-assisted, ongoing coup d'état of the U.S. government and concomitant levers of power with such an encirclement simultaneously fending off neo-fascist efforts at destroying democratic institutions both nationally and globally.
Example 3: Should current political and socio-economic trends in the U.S. continue, the Dominion of Canada will be forced to consider creating a CORDON SANITAIRE with her southerly neighbor in the good faith of shielding her denizens from the USA influenza strain, the first isolated flu varietal known to cause shear stupidity, inexplicable gullibility, and general ignorance in over 95% of observed patients.
*Please note: 'Spent waste' does NOT refer to Jared Kushner, Ivanka Trump, or radioactive waste. Preemptive apology for any confusion this may have caused to sufferers of USA flu or the organically smooth brained.

A pejorative term. The feeling and/or sensation of a mind/body altering drug that when taken and effects become noticeable, particularly pharmaceutical drugs, rather than wanton and desired sensations (i.e. Euphoria, Elevated Mood, Pain Abatement, Overall Positive Vibe, etc) upfront and foremost substance feels unnatural, a disturbing sensation that is 'complex', heavy, something expected from neuro or blood pressure drugs, something akin to wearing the wrong sized shoes or a jacket on a hot day. A substance that when imbibed relentlessly lets you know it is a pharmaceutical. A complaint associated with the likes of Lithium, Seroquil, and Promethazine. Can also be used in a non-pharm sense such as in toking schwag with plentiful stems & beans versus an OG, Northern Ligjts, or Panama Red. Crawling skin, vertigo, lethegy, slow-mindedness are some additional symptoms. Akin to the experience of having a refined palate for beer, typically choosing Sierra Nevada, Bass, or Red Hook, when you have that unscratchable itch for a cold one and someone serves you a Keystone or Natural Light--sourced from Utah no doubt where beer is a mnadatory 3.2%. You drink it, but not out of disgust or revulsion the body/mind simply does not want it or can enjoy it; you feel a quesy, off-putting, a not-quite-right sensation entirely--it knows. Almost a mild form of poisoning. Can be associated when purchasing bunk or forged drugs like Fentanyl or Methadone in a supposed 15 or 30 mg oxycodone.
"After trying both Buprenorphine and Suboxone, the latter gave me this very present unneasy feelng, a sense that made my entire body know I had defintiely taken a pharmaceutical. My body and mind know and cannot unfocus from the feeling that I ingested a really pharmy drug. Ex. 2 After months of face-melting ganja flowers, all I could find was a schwag bag from some high school cat my cousin knows. One bowl in and my entire felt pharmy--probably god knows what chemicals were used to grow that corn field dirt. Ex 3 I bought some babe the blue ox off that sketchy dude and once I got home and railed one, it was obvious the pill was bunk, a counterfeit--my body could feel that pharmy sensation never associated with pure OC."
