Insult used by a fringe group of Black Americans who identify as “Foundational Black Americans”. They say it describes black immigrants (namely “melanated immigrants” as they refer to them; with the idea they’re the only “Black” people) that are in the United States to undermine them in order to gain things such as resources and reparations. However it’s mainly used as a disgusting slur to attack Black immigrants (namely Africans and Carribeans). The usage itself is rooted in nativist ideals that mirror MAGA and harbor afrophobia and xenophobia.

Get the Tethermug. When your pet can't leave a turd behind because the turd has one of your own hairs embedded in it that hasn't completely passed.
I smelled poo on my pet and found a turd hanging by one of my own hairs. So I grabbed the turd tether and pulled it the rest of the way out.
