An abbreviation for Wingnut Threat Level.

#WTL is a common hashtag used on Twitter, Facebook, and other social networks, often used in the question, "What's the #WTL?"

Similar to the U.S. Government's Terrorism Alert Level, the answer is usually a color such as "red" or "orange." The subjective level is usually influenced by some ludicrous, exaggerated or manipulated hyper-partisan political event being praised or lauded by political operatives or extremists.

Regardless of which color (or other signifier) is used, the more the event threatens the public discourse, political civility, or narratives being advanced by the concorporate media, the greater is the assumed threat level.
After a tax protester crashed his light plane into an IRS office, the WTL went straight to red.

this is a common way to say white trash loser without spelling it out. really it just saves you time while talking about people like levi johnson, kevin federline, britney spears, joe dirte, members of the kkk, people who have confederate flags in their trucks or homes, and anyone who has furniture in their front yard or on their porch.
"oh my god, the neighbors haven't mowed their lawn in weeks. what a bunch of wtls!! we have to move!"

"did you see britney going to the store in her pink wig and no shoes?"

"yeah i did. typical wtl."

"my ex boyfriend drinks beer all weekend and gets so drunk he can't talk and drools himself. he's a wtl."
