A word that extremely-online Marxists and tankies like to use, that no normal person knows or cares what the fuck means.
Some edgy communist online started mumbling some shit about praxis and the finer points of Bolshevism vs. Trotskyism, and I told him to go outside.

Get the praxis mug.John is a libertarian. He has a ponytail, likes marijuana, and doesn't hate gay people, but otherwise, he is indistinguishable from a Republican.

Get the Libertarian mug.A term that REALLY just fucking means lies, but thanks to postmodernism, we're not allowed to call them that anymore, because everyone's viewpoint is equally valid, there is no such thing as a false narrative, and everyone is entitled to their own personal reality.
You say the sun is made of hydrogen and helium, I say it's made of whale farts and silly string! Those are my alternative facts! Nobody is right or wrong, there is no such thing as objectivity, we have to respect everyone's viewpoint!

Get the alternative facts mug.Larry Libertarian believes that workers have no rights, taxation is theft, racial discrimination should be legal, regulations that protect clean air and water should be rolled back, and everything else that a Republican believes...but he wants to legalize the marijuana, so all the 20-somethings think he's cool.

Get the Libertarian mug.The idea that if you're discussing a viewpoint or theory that is highly contentious or controversial, if you make it seem like it is much too complex for the average person to understand, and only comprehensible to a select few, enlightened individuals in a secret smart-person club (such as yourself, of course), by using a lot of jargon and esoteric references that only other people in your very exclusive circle will get, then it will fool the general public into thinking that it must obviously be correct because it's "complicated", and discourage anyone from questioning it (and also, jerk yourself off for being so smart).
Note: This does NOT apply to fields that actually are just extremely difficult to understand and over most people's heads (rocket science, quantum physics, nuclear engineering, etc.). This is when you take something that really isn't all that complicated, and act like it is, to give it an air of legitimacy.

When radical communists discuss Marxist theory online, and go on about stuff like "praxis" and the finer points of Bolshevism vs. Trotskyism and other shit that nobody who isn't glued to a computer 24/7 has even heard of or gives a flying fuck about, they are engaging in obscurantism.

Get the obscurantism mug.I used to say I didn't give a flying fuck, but then I took a vacation to the UK with my girl and on the way there, I decided to change that.

Get the flying fuck mug.A classic, all-purpose insult for a stupid person that can be used many ways, this particular definition writer prefers to use it for people who do idiotic things that they should know better than to do, and which, due to their own stupidity, end up with them getting hurt, getting suckered out of their money or otherwise taken advantage of, or suffering other ill fortune. People who brought it on themselves.
Some people think the term originated with Beavis and Butt-head, but that's actually not true, that show just popularized the term. It's at least as old as Star Trek IV (1986), and probably older than that. While the show That '70s Show came out later, and is fictional, the character of Red Forman in that show was also known for using the term and so, if the show is an accurate depiction of the time, then people were using the term in the '70s as well.

I read an article about this dude who got drunk, put a lit firecracker in a beer bottle and shoved it up his rectum, and now he doesn't have an anus or a colon. What a dumbass.

Get the dumbass mug.
