socialist

A person who follows the economic ideas of socialism. Socialists believe in people controlling the goods they produce. For example, a land owner in central America makes his money by simply owning land, and hires workers to work. The workers harvest the crops and do all the physical work. He pays them a dollar a day, sells the crop and makes thousands a day, just for owning the land. The socialist model would do away with the owner and have the workers control the land, that they would collectively own and the distrubution of the crops. Socialism does address the worlds current sitituation where the seven richest people in the world have more money than the world's poorest thirty countries. Socialism does believe in the equal distribution of wealth, which is its main tenet.

She thinks there should be national healthcare I think she might be a Socialist.

social justice

Promoting tolerance, freedom, and equality for all people regardless of race, sex, orietntation, national origin, handicap, etc... except for white, straight, cisgendered males. Fuck those guys, they're overprivileged no matter what.

"In the name of social justice, check your privilege."

socially drunk

State of being lively, energetic, loud, outgoing, unreserved, and sometimes even obnoxious in public (usually at a party) without any prior consumption of alcohol. It's as if one has become drunk on life or from the energy of the party atmosphere. One may be subject to moodswings, especially as the party dies down, experiencing a sort of social buzzkill, leading to minor temporary depression and fatigue. Occasionally, one's memory may even be impaired, as one may be reminded later about things that were said or done that one does not remember doing or saying.

It's fun, safe, and you can drive yourself home afterward!

At Heather's Halloween Party, I was socially drunk because she came outside and told me to shut up because I was the loudest (and only sober) one there, and that I was going to get the police called on the party. But I wasn't going to get in trouble because I wasn't even drinking!

social cannibal

A social cannibal is a person, usually a friend, who is a friend when it's just you (and other friends in your group, this can have multiple victims at once but is not as effective the more friends he cannibalizes at once) around but as soon as he's around other people, friend or not, if he needs to he will feed off a friend's or multiple friends' faults to better himself socially. Usually it involves heavily over exaggerating stuff about said friends. The cannibal will usually deny doing this. It also counts if the person changes opinions and views on things based off the person they're around, things that you both agree with that he can turn around and accuse you of agreeing with that opinion.

Bi-stander: Yeah so people who play guitar are so gay.
Cannibal: Yeah! You're right! I hate guitar players
Friend: But dude, we both PLAY gui-
Cannibal: Uh, dude I used to but then I saw how stupid guitar is.
Friend: But dude just yesterday you where saying how you love g-
Cannibal: I didn't say that! By that I mean't I actually hate it.

*later*
Friend: dude you're SUCH a social cannibal.
Cannibal: no I'm not dude? what do you mean?

Used by middle management, means to spread an idea around and get other people's buy-in.

I like that idea. Let's socialize it a bit.

Social Justice

A competition where white people bully celebrities on Twitter to prove to one another that they are not racist (formally a movement to promote freedom, equality, and community for people who have traditionally been disadvantaged in society).

It does not serve social justice to allow this pop singer to live down something they tweeted 12 years ago that now sounds problematic out of context.

I’ve been on Twitter all day, cancelling celebrities in the name of social justice.
