selective cheering

When you don't like one or more players on your favourite sports team and cheer for everyone but them.

Even though I'm a diehard Flames fan, I've been doing some selective cheering since we got Stajan.

Selective Black

Describes an individual who engages with Black identity, culture, or community on a conditional basis—supporting aspects that align with their comfort, image, or personal gain while distancing from deeper commitments that require solidarity, sacrifice, or accountability. Often expressed through an “à la carte” mindset, this approach embraces certain expressions of Blackness while neglecting or excluding others—particularly at the intersections of queerness, disability, and marginalized gender identities. It reflects a curated connection to Blackness that prioritizes optics over liberation, and preference over principle.

The everyday use of “Black pride” on social media, while dismissing the struggles of Black LGBTQIA+ folks, revealed a Selective Black mindset—an à la carte approach to identity that prioritizes aesthetics over collective liberation.

select-o-vision

A situation where someone reads a variety of materials on a particular subject, but that person rejects information or materials -- even if they are factually accurate -- because this information or materials do not support one's beliefs or opinions.

She's a diehard Republican, and she's got select-o-vision. If she reads any articles or books that make Democrats look good -- even if the stuff is true -- she wants to ignore it or pretend it doesn't exist.
