Orwellian Right

The Orwellian Right is an ideologically coordinated and well funded group of think tanks, media personalities, as well as print and internet media, which seek to mislead the public by reframing issues in a manner described in George Orwell’s classic book “1984”. In that world Black = White and War = Peace.

After the Reagan tax cuts of 1981, revenues (in constant dollars) did not reach 1981 levels again until 1985. Because irresponsible borrowing to give tax cuts mainly for the wealthy can’t be sold on face value to the Public, the Orwellian Right conveniently ignored the drop in real revenues and redefined the rebound in revenues as “proof” of a Revenue Boom created by the 1981 tax cuts. In reality revenues rose because of natural growth in the economy, inflation, increased defense spending, and two massive Reagan-era take hikes. In the Orwellian world, hundreds of billions in revenue lost over 4 years = a revenue boom.

Maybe Ice-T's right, you are a bitch

When you come around looking for money when you're broke but nobody ever sees yo ass when you're rich.

Nigga last month you didn't chill round here at all riding yo' Escalade and shit but now the rent's due and you all up in our grills. Maybe Ice-T's right, you are a bitch.

Your other right

For little kids and dumbasses, it a saying to mean when you raise your left hand when asked for your right, to tell them to change to the other hand.

Teacher: Kids, raise your right hand!

(Billy raises his left hand.)

Teacher: Billy, your other right.

right off the smack

Similar to right off the bat, right off the smack refers to the first thing that is necessary, done, or noticed. The modification of this phrase is used to ground the jargon to just getting off the effect of heroin, smack, which impairs cognitive function.

Right off the smack, if I'm gonna live here I'm going to need hot food, a hot shower, and a hot lay.
