A word used to describe a liberal, used interchangeably with libtard and shitlib. Used when describing those who support the democratic party without question.
A word denoting a typical liberal, likely to support the Democratic party without question and soften the edge of any leftist movement that threatens the establishment. Derives from the desire for the American parties (Democrats in particular) to be 'Big Tent'.
Tentheads often try to disarm any sort of radical movement in the name of 'keeping peace' and then go on to cry about needing the kind of change those radical movements would have brought.
Also synonymous with 'Shitlib' and 'Libtard' (though Tenthead is more often used in leftist circles.)
the following is a conversation that actually happened to me.
guy: dude, what the hell are you listening to?
me: well, that depends on what you want me to say. If i say, "electronic music" then you won't care. but if i use the word "techno" then you'll call me an idiot. so whichever one you want to hear is fine by me because i don't care what anyone else thinks.
guy: you listen to techno!? you're such an idiot!
