Abbreviation of "Reverse Robin Hood."
Many people, even those who claim to hate Reaganomics/Neoliberalism, will argue things like, "If you cancel the student debt of people who had the collateral to take out HUGE loans, and whose annual income exceeds their total student debt, that money will 'trickle down' to others."
That's wrong. That's Paul Ryan's "I Got Mine Now Fuck You" economic plan.
Some will say, Populism -- rule by the "pure" -- is more important than social progress. All it really means is, all of these "progressive" economic plans do indeed help White Hetero Affluent Males climb higher, but at the expense of the Blue Collar Working Class. These Populists may claim this is all part of Class Warfare against the top 2% -- but rather than punch up, they are punching down at legislation that means equal progress for women, people of color, the LGBTQ+ community, et al. It is stealing from the poor to give to the Affluent White Collar Middle Class, who in turn never do overturn tax codes and other pyramid schemes that give to the Rich. Thus, Reverse Robin Hood.

"DId that Berniecrat actually just say we should prioritize sending rich white boys to college, and ignore children who can't even go to a school with clean water to drink?"

Get the RRHmug. Today, as Ukraine is still suffering during Putin's #WarOfAggression, Elizabeth Warren continued to not care, opting instead to raise funds FOR HERSELF, with the hashtag #DBFH. Sources close to the bloody & teeth gingivitis Senator confirm, the letters stand for Dumb Berniecrat From Hell.
"Berniecrats KNOW that Putin is a dictator who rigs elections, right? So how can an ILLEGITIMATE DICTATOR have "legitimate" security concerns???"

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."

KHive, used correctly, describes a group of progressive democrats who celebrate things like the utter destruction of Prop 8, accomplished with the help of then-California Attorney General Kamala Harris.
Used incorrectly, it is hate speech against black voters specifically, and more generally, against anyone who does not put the needs of White Heterosexual Affluent Males above all others.

Get the khivemug. Sealioning is a term used to identify trolls who request citations when citations weren't necessary. It is akin to the meme of a child asking "Why?" after everything you say -- not even because they want to know, but as a bad faith way of faking interest while actually just trying to exhaust another person.
For example, "Sealioning" itself has been Sealioned with bad faith "definitions" attempting to change the meaning of the word to benefit online trolls.
