90s Kid

Someone who grew up primarily in the 1990s, or who has a fanatical attachment to that decade regardless of the fact they were born later. 90s kids and the "things they remember" are a popular subject for irritating Buzzfeed-esque pop culture lists extolling the virtues of that decade.

Alt Right

"How dare you call Hitler a Nazi! Slander!"

The rebranding of a bunch of loosely-collected quasi-fascists who share a bitter hatred of the Left and a generally misanthropic, nihilistic outlook (that is, towards anyone that isn't them). Their ideology is usually vague, though they all have a dislike of intelligence, tolerance and femininity - and democracy, of course.

The Alt Right's ranks are full of under-educated white men who transform their inner insecurities into rage, and that rage into misguided spite. The two main subsections are the autistic 4chan keyboard warriors (you'll hear them use the word soy boy even though they probably only leave their bedrooms once a week), and the tiki torch marchers, who have been known to use their feet to walk. They also murder people from time to time.

It's an unholy combination of the bullied kids at school who are only a few steps away from shooting it up, and the old-school neo-Nazi youths (also bullied at school), some of whom are now actually fully-grown adults.

4chan

A forum where disenchanted, mostly mentally ill teens are inducted into a wildly un-idealistic, nihilistic and misanthropic form of the hard Right, which mainly exists to sow discord.

The main unifying feature of its users seems to be a hatred and intolerance of the Left, rather than any meaningful or constructive ideology, meaning that therefore adherents must simply disagree with the Left and not much more (beside generally behave abhorrently).

We can thank the site for such wonderful terms as "normies" and "cucks," which serve to unhelpfully label progressives, and for normalising the ultra-Right.

Hoe

A word we’ve somehow allowed to become an acceptable synonym for “woman”/“girl.” Also spelled “ho.”

Also, a prostitute or promiscuous woman.
“Yo, check out those hoes over there.”

Coldplay

A band that is simultaneously over- and underrated. While their albums since 2011 have been mediocre and sold way too much, their early material (1998-2008) is unfairly hated upon, bringing us some brilliant, melodic and heartfelt alt-rock. Though some of this work is overrated (namely "Fix You"), it is just jam-packed with incredible songs. Below are a list of some underrated gems.

"Sparks", "High Speed" and just about anything that isn't "Yellow" from Parachutes (2000).
"Politik" and "Amsterdam" from A Rush of Blood to the Head (2002).
"X&Y" and "Twisted Logic" from X & Y (2005).
"Cemeteries of London," "Lovers in Japan" and "Violet Hill" from Viva la Vida (2008) - their best album.
"Another's Arms" from Ghost Stories (2014).
"For You," "Crests of Waves", "One I Love," "Life in Technicolor ii," "All Your Friends" and "All I Can Think About is You" from their EPs
"Coldplay is on a slow downhill slide."

Outrage Inflation

The reduction in the meaningfulness and relevance of individual controversies as they are swallowed in a sea of other concurrent controversies and outrage. Comparable to economic inflation.

A symptom of the Internet age and the neverending cycle of overreaction, bitterness and hostility. It is not necessarily entirely a reflection of the proliferation of controversy over minor events, given that the news is also filled with many shocking events of great magnitude. The fact that it is easy to forget what mind-numbingly stupid thing Donald Trump said two weeks ago is also a symptom of outrage inflation.
We'll all soon forget that time Trump nearly declared war by mistake thanks to outrage inflation and the 24-hour news cycle.

Sexist

Use this in a definition for a word and everyone will downvote it. Using it labels you as an SJW which is, like, really bad. That being said it's correctly applied to a lot of things, like certain subsections of society.

Being called "sexist" is almost as offensive as being called "racist" to Right-wingers, which is funny considering it basically comes with the territory.
"Trump is a flagrant sexist." Pretty simple.
