faux-inverse

An inversion involving conflation.

Usually involves inverting the position of the structural (future-to-past) truth and the formalistic (past-to-future) truth; and then conflating the formalistic truth with the structural truth.

Ie. the formalistic truth becomes the structural truth.

The semantic.

A faux-inverse juxtaposes both inversion and conflation.

Faux Posh

The faux pas that is pretending to be wealthier than one truly is, usually accompanied by or in poor taste.

Los Angeles "influencers" living in a three-bedroom flat with four roommates, wearing Gucci and Balenciaga to go out on Saturday night is positively faux posh.

Faux Hardcore

Fake hardcore, also for screamo and metalcore. Taking classic 80's and 90's hardcore, screamo, and metallic hardcore (metalcore), by completely debauching the subgenre(s) from over use of "break downs", unnecessary clean vocals, weak death metal vocals/growls, unoriginal and overused "hardcore attitude" (ranging from tough guy, integrity, and "brotherhood" themed lyrics).

The most hardcore bands ever are like Emmure & Attack! Attack! No man, that's Faux Hardcore....

Faux Operator

A Faux Operator embraces all of the appeaeances of a military spec ops dude, without ever having served. They wear: 511 pants, long beards, Oakley’s, and Hats with tear away Velcro flags. They can often be found in their normal haunts, at celebrity firearms classes. They often feel that the instructor’s past bio somehow is now part of their resume.

Hey bro, I just went over to thank that secret squirrel looking dude, with the new Sig MCX rifle, for his service. You know, the guy that was talking about Mogadishu all morning. He stuttered a bit, then told me, “he had shin splints in ROTC and he couldn’t enlist.” That dude’s not a SEAL, he’s a Faux Operator; I’m gonna steal his $700.00 Aimpount and piss in his canteen later.

Faux thug

A guy who has never left his parents million dollar suburban how yet thinks and talks like he's hood because he listens to rap and smokes weed.

I saw this faux thug from Scarsdale at the mall giving a pound sayin "what's hood son". Knowing he's driving mommy?s Benz outside.

faux-nel

A knock-off version of Chanel.

Did you see those hideous faux-nel ballet flats? If you can't afford the double C's, don't fake it.
