Vernacular colonialism

The process through which black slang and vernacular is co opted to become part of "internet culture". Terms like "simp" "woke" and "lit" that have been used for years in the black community and black Twitter become mainstream, leading white people to think the terms belong to them, ignorant of their origins.
