Political tightrope

A gesture to how difficult it can be to try to balance pursuing your own and your party’s goals with people with pleasing enough of your constituents to get reelected

Political Perry

That one guy that will always bring politics and their views into absolutely everything that you are talking about.
Person 1: Hey what did you think of that new movie?
Person 2: It was pretty good to be honest

Person 3: They just made the protagonist black for publicity
Person 2: See this is why we don’t like you, you’re such a Political Perry

3. Using discussion stopping labels, such as 'racist', 'bigot' & 'misogynist' to "win" arguments.
4. Pandering to voters while doing little for them.
5. A political mindset that has been discredited by electing non-politicians

Political Cinematic Universe

1. A soyjak’s Marvel-tier obsession with treating politics like the next Avengers saga, where voting for the "lesser evil" is the ultimate NPC quest. Features endless reboots (elections), zero character development (career politicians), and post-credit scenes (news cycles) teasing the next "most important election of our lives."

2. When normies LARP as "freedom fighters" by doomscrolling headlines, stanning blue-check politicians, and arguing online like they’re in the Capitol Hill version of Endgame. Spoiler: Thanos (the deep state) always wins.
"Dave spent 4 hours debating midterm polls on Reddit, fully immersed in the Political Cinematic Universe. Meanwhile, his life’s still mid, his 401k’s dead, and his wife’s boyfriend says ‘vote harder.’"
