white-lighter

a term describing a follower of a religion, philosophy, or spirituality that preaches things like denial of one's instincts and abstinence from worldly pleasures in order to attain some vaguely defined goal like "salvation" or "enlightenment"(e.g. Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, and some, but not all, forms of Judaism).

The term is mostly used by Satanists or other (non)spiritualists who believe in indulgence of the flesh. It may be used as an outright insult, a smug dismissal, etc.
"Did you hear? The Dalai Lama is doing a booksigning!"
"Meh. That's white-lighter stuff. Not my thing, man."

Hot Topic

A chain of stores, linked to the Gap, that markets supposedly "radical" ideas and styles to angsty teens who are pissed off for no apparent reason...making them feel superior to others who buy overpriced A&F stuff, while they don't see that what they are buying is equally overpriced. Hot topic seems to have an agenda of actually MONOPOLIZING non-conformity,so anyone without a brain could even see that it's a bunch of shit.
"I'm such a rebel! i got this anarchy shirt at hot topic!"

"Hmm....'made in mexico.' Oh, wasn't there a massacre by the police a few weeks ago at one of HT's factories during the IWW strike?"

neo-luddite

a new promoter of the ideas of Ned Ludd and his people who destroyed industrial technologies while the Industrial Revolution was taking place. Neo-luddites come in many forms, and oppose technology for different reasons. This includes those calling themselves "radical traditionalists," who oppose it because they feel that industrial society subverts traditional folk-and-faith values. Others, who call themselves "primitivists," believe that technology and civilization itself are inherently repressive because it forces people to act contrary to their instincts, and interferes with natural eugenic population control measures, etc. Famous neo-Luddites include the Unabomber Ted Kaczynski, Derrick Jensen, Jacques Ellul, and John Zerzan. It must be pointed out, though, that those like the Unabomber are strictly the exception rather than the norm.
John Zerzan as a Neo-luddite has written extensively on what he believes are the atrocities of civilization.

automatic writing

1. a form of writing, often employed by surrealist poets, done by thinking as little as possible about what one is writing so that the thoughts from the id, unhindered by the ego, may come through.
2. a form of writing done in a similar manner, with a complete lack of any thought on the writer's part, employed by spiritualists who wish to "channel in" the thoughts of spirits or other entities from different planes of existence.
3. a form of writing done in the above manner by mental patients who are instructed to do so, so that their inner thoughts may be examined by psychological authorities
Automatic Writing is often easier to do while half asleep.

xtian

abbreviated form of Christian, often used as a derogatory term by Satanists, militant Atheists, etc. It is derived from the use of X as an abbreviation for Christ, as in Xmas. Strictly speaking, this rule dictates it be spelled "xian," but it is spelled "xtian" to avoid confusion with the city of Xian,China.
Satanist(online): "Modern society has such a disregard for the living world. I blame the xtian scum!"

boyd rice

A noise artist and diabolic philosopher, known for his many recordings and writings dealing with subjects such as social darwinism, misanthropy, and general outsider-ness(for lack of better words:P). He is despised by the oversocialized PC Left, being a prominent member of the recent unpop art movement alongside greats such as Jim Goad. But despite all the ear shattering noise he makes, he also proves to be of many skills, playing melodic collaborations with neo-folk band Death in June. He is not the dark messenger he presents himself as either, as he has been known for the most amusing mass-pranks one has ever seen, including one in which he threw bananas at German hotel guests while dressed as a gorrilla in nazi regalia.
"Oppression is the opiate of the masses, people geniunely get off on it."
