Get the Rizz syndromemug. Racism Everywhere Syndrome (RES) is an informal term used to describe a phenomenon in which an individual interprets neutral or innocent subjects as racist due to their own subconscious associations. Instead of recognizing the thought as originating from themselves, the person externalizes it and labels the subject as racist.
Definition
RES has been described as a type of cognitive projection, where one’s own implicit associations are attributed to an outside object, character, or symbol. Proponents of the term argue that a truly non-racist individual would not make such associations in the first place.
Characteristics
Typical features of RES include:
Overinterpretation: assigning racist intent to symbols, colors, or characters with no evidence of such intent.
Projection: transferring one’s own subconscious thought onto an external subject.
Moral signaling: publicly accusing neutral subjects of racism as a way of demonstrating personal anti-racist values.
Examples
Interpreting a fictional character’s dark fur, clothing, or traits as racist stereotypes, despite no evidence of authorial intent.
Viewing ordinary colors, shapes, or symbols as inherently racist.

Get the Racism Everywhere Syndrome (RES)mug. Second Season Syndrome comes the week or few days before the playoffs (also known as second season) in major sports, especially when the media coverage starts to become more prominent. It's when fans get so excited and over anxious and start to go a little crazy, and can't wait till game day. It is something only true sports fans experience, as they are extremely loyal fans to their favorite sports teams.

Rick: hey, you wanna text Johnny to see if he's down to smoke some weed?
James: nah, he's got Buckley Syndrome ever since that ambulance chaser helped him win that lawsuit. He only smokes Benson and Hedges now.
