A type of realism, usually invoked by films and documentary. Strangely
enough, "gritty realism" is only perceptible to media and film critics and the term is hardly ever used by anyone else. In fact no-one but film and tv critics ever use the term.

Get the griffy mug.A shill is a person who disingenuously sells a product or an idea.
By comparison, a grifter is a person who disingenuously sells a persona. A grifter purports to be or represent something, but they are actually not. They may:
* Pretend to be another ethnicity for a perceived benefit (e.g. Rachel Dolezal, Jack Murphy, Elizabeth Warren)
* Sell a life stance at odds with their actual private life (e.g. Jordan Peterson, Jack Murphy again)
* Aggressively promote some cause in advance of their personal gain (Shaun King, Patrisse Cullors)
* Scam naïve investors in a hopeless business venture (Elizabeth Holmes, Adam Neumann)

Get the Griftified mug.A pseudopolitician who bilks their authoritarian- and theocracy- minded
pseudoconstituents out of large amounts of cash to line their own pockets and/or live a lavish lifestyle, by constantly spouting the inflammatory and bigoted rhetoric, outright lies, strawman arguments, false accusations, and hypocritical projections that these slavish followers need to keep their neurons, syntaxes, and monetary contributions stimulated, while also working with their fellow g-o-p's to promote a fascist agenda by hamstringing democracy by any means necessary, assiduously working to curtail voting and voting rights and to enact state level legislation that gives the power of vote nullification to state legislatures.
