Ichabod

In reference to the Headless Horseman, an "Ichabod" is a man in an online personal ad who will show you every private part he's got, but not his face, resulting in an endless array of headless profile shots.
Wow, did you check out that profile!

Yeah, but he's probably got a face like a mud fence... Geez, put up a face pic! It's the 21st Century, Ichabod!

Uncle Tom's Cabin Republican

Noun

Gay conservatives started a group called the "Log Cabin Republicans," in a strange reference to Abraham Lincoln. Of course, this group was founded in 1977, when Republicans were openly discriminating against the LGBTQ+ community. This prompted commentators to begin comparing the group to the term "Uncle Tom," someone who thinks of slave masters as benevolent dictators, and just treating them nicely will persuade them to end their genocidal slavery practices. Hence, an "Uncle Tom's Cabin Republican."
Don't count on him to care about trans rights. He's an Uncle Tom's Cabin Republican who still deadnames Caitlyn Jenner, despite HER being an Uncle Tom's Cabin Republican herself!

IIBO

Short for "If I'm Being Honest"
When you make a statement that's true, but acknowledge that it will likely never be commonly accepted and implemented.
One day, the people who call Kamala Harris a warmonger, despite their active support of her warmonger opponent, may realize they were making Accusations In A Mirror.

But it will probably require large quantities of pharmaceuticals, IIBO.

Blue MAGA

Noun.
Term for people who behave exactly like Trump supporters but who are instead aligned with Bernie Sanders and other Putinists. In 2016, Blue MAGA was used by Democrats to describe Berniecrats who frequently express their hatred of anti-fascist Democrats. Of course, Berniecrats have adopted Orwell's Newspeak to try to distance themselves from their own fascism -- even though Newspeak is inherently fascist.
I criticized yet another one of Bernie's votes where he sided with the Republicans, and Berniecrats have been flooding my DMs with death threats ever since. Thanks a lot Blue MAGA.

Blue MAGA

Noun.
Coined in 2016, as voters recognized that Bernie Bros were acting exactly like their GOP counterparts. Which made more sense the more we learned that Putin supported both Trump and Sanders in several ways.
"I thought we were ALL anti-fascists, but it turns out that guy in the Birdie Sanders merch is just Blue MAGA."

MAGAdjacent

Adjective
Many politicians and supporters identify as Never Trump, but on a social progress scale, 100 being truly, meaningfully for progress, and -100 representing the regressiveness of Trump, many of these people are at -99. This is true of Republicans like Romney, Kinzinger, and Cheney, who still vote over 90% with Trump's radically conservative positions, and is also true in Horseshoe Theory, among people who CLAIM to care about things like climate change, reparations, voting rights, gun reform, et al, but say they will sit out the election, or, worse, actively carry water for the GOP, if the 48 Democrat Senators don't magically act like a 68-seat Supermajority.

MAGAdjacent can also be used as a noun to describe people whose political outcomes match the definition above.
"I actually heard a so-called Progressive™ say she would support Liz Cheney for PRESIDENT!!!"
"OMG! Even after Liz made a spectacle of herself after Roe V Wade was struck down?"
"I know! I knew Bros had some MAGAdjacent tendencies, but I had no idea this Bro was officially a MAGAdjacent!"

KHive

Used correctly, KHive is a term used for high-information voters who have seen the value of the work being done my Vice President Kamala Harris. She has a long record of stepping into offices traditionally held by conservative white males, and applying socially-progressive theories, to prevent crime, and to prosecute criminals that conservatives tend to ignore, from rapists to big banks. As California Attorney General, she risked her job to affirm that Prop H8 is indefensible, paving the way for the Supreme Court to reaffirm that marriage is a fundamental right that cannot be denied to LGBTQ+ people. As a Senator, she was famous for making the patriarchal establishment nervous.

However, many people who do not recognize that they are PART of the patriarchal establishment hate the candidate who, despite being forced out of the Primary by the rich patriarchy, has become the Vice President. They misuse "KHive" as a slur, the way that their MAGA counterparts would call such supporters "Antifa." It has become dog whistle for "uppity black woman," even though millions of Vice President Harris' supporters are neither black nor women. Facts do not matter to them. If they make toxic, pro-Putin comments, they believe "only KHive could possibly take offense to this toxicity!"
Tea Party: "Democrats are scrambling to find a replacement for President Biden in 2024."
Constitution: If for some reason President Biden needs to be replaced, he will be succeeded by the Vice President.
Tea Roses: "OMFG, you must be KHive."
