Aka. G.C.P.I. or just generational consistency, When the political beliefs of an individual match their parents, guardians, and or grandparent’s political beliefs. The more generations from the same family who have the same beliefs, the stronger the generational consistency is. If the trend goes on for too long it can become source of privilege for the younger generations may not even take the time to do research in order to formulate their own views on issues and vote responsibly.
Erin: So, who are you voting for tomorrow?

John: I’ll probably vote for whoever the democrat is. I almost always vote democrat; just like my father and my grandparents on my father’s side. I have a generationally consistent political identity.
Erin: You don’t pay attention to who is running in elections and what their stances are do you?
John: No. Not really.

Societal avalanche

Or S.A.; When a major, unexpected, unfortunate event happens, which was caused by hatred and or corruption, it usually prompts the government and various populations in society to quickly mobilize to address the issue that caused the event occur, even if relatively little is known about the problem. The result of this mobilization is an avalanche of social, economic, and or political changes and reform efforts meant to prevent the issue from reoccurring and or to make it less severe when it does occur. The event produces many consequences, some are noticed immediately, while are others don’t get quite so much attention until a later point in time.
An example of a societal avalanche is the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. When the oil spill happened, governmental agencies from numerous countries found in and around the Gulf of Mexico rushed to try to clean up the oil spill. People volunteered with various environmental organizations to save as many of trapped fish, birds, and turtles as they could. Many members of the public, environmental groups, and local fishing companies pushed politicians to pass stricter regulations for companies drilling for oil offshore, pass policies to get the U.S. to get more of its energy supply from more renewable sources that are safer to employ, and pass laws to provide financial relief to the local fishing companies that were negatively impacted by the accident. An investigation from BP and the U.S. government later revealed that lack of regard for safety policies and the rushed, cheap construction of the rig were responsible for the accident.

Recheck all of your biases

Usually said in response to someone saying check your privilege in response to a bias incident that involves more than one type of discrimination, one of which is a nonmainstream type of discrimination like Speciesism, this is said to remind people to keep all of their biases and privileges, including the ones that come from nonmainstream types of discrimination, in check before evaluating and or responding to bias incidents and an individual’s circumstances
Jamard: I heard that some guy and his Hispanic ex-girlfriend got into a custody fight over their pet dog. They gave the dog to the woman, even though she has a lengthy criminal record. They should have given it to the guy.

Owen: Hey. You’re a straight, Caucasian male. Check your privilege.
Jamard: Dude, recheck all of your biases. The woman is upper middle class, had a criminal record, and some of those charges were for neglecting to take proper care of their previous pets. She also had cheated on her ex-boyfriend with some famous street rapper from Miami, Florida. Would you care to enlighten me about how it is acceptable that a person with that type of background was given custody of the dog?
Owen: Point taken. You’re right.

Lisa: Kaid, why did you take those documents from Harold's office earlier? You taking things that don't belong to you without consent is wrong.
Kaid: Those documents indicated Harold was stealing some of the products we are producing. We need to show them to our supervisor, so it can be handled appropriately and prevent this from happening again. I'm playing Alucard's game. I know it was wrong to take them without telling him, but we can't just let him get away with this.

Lisa: Agreed...
