Time for traffic problems in Fort Lee

When a political vendetta is focused on local leaders constituents because he won't support a major politician. E.g., jamming up traffic for 1000's of constituents. Many constituents may unwittingly end up focusing their anger on the local leader, who is helpless in such a situation. The vendetta is obvious to the local leader, however it is hard to prove. When he protests he is mocked and humiliated, and made to look like a paranoid, delusional conspiracy theorist or incompetent idiot. The wide publicity from the vendetta creates an exponential impact on other non-supporters of the major politician, so they get the message and jump in line so they do not end up being humiliated, or in political gridlock.
Since the real perpetrator always has plausible deniability he can claim to be blindsided, heartbroken, embarrassed, humiliated and betrayed by his zealots, and his stupid goons. The ability of the perpetrator to transform himself into the victim by playing to people's empathy, sympathy, and by using an army of spin doctors who can saturated the media with a new image is a true accomplishment. The perpetrator's success may end up further enhancing his ability to inspire fear in those who may not aspire to come to his rescue. This works best when a complete account of conspiracy theory cannot show a direct connection, such as by a paper trail, or by testimony from stupid aides and appointees.
When stuck in gridlock traffic for hours.

Faceless constituent One: I guess it was "Time for traffic problems in Fort Lee"
Faceless constituent Two: You "Got it," right.

Zero World Problems

Situations and scenarios third-wave feminists whine and complain about that literally don't exist in any basis of reality.
Susan complains about how hard her life is due to men, from her iPhone that was engineered by men from the comfort of a house built by men... talk about zero world problems.

difference between attacking people and problems

in our modern soc-med world, a very important moral quality that you absolutely cannot, and will never be able to, buy at the local Walmart.
the main reason the 2016 campaign rhetoric was so vitriolic and insidious was that both presidential nominees didn't know, or didn't bother to learn, the difference between attacking people and problems.

Problematically Attractive

An adjective describing a person who is extremely attractive to the point of being distractive, but expressing any attraction towards them would be taboo. This term is an antonym of Situationally Attractive, as it describes someone you would ask out under virtually any other circumstances. It is especially appropriate for situations where you must interact with the person in question and conceal your interest in them.
1) An especially cute subordinate would be Problematically Attractive. Monica Lewinsky is a famous example of this.

2) Any teacher or TA attractive enough that you genuinely consider dating them, particularly if you are under 18. Since you can't date them, they're problematically attractive

3) Someone who would be the perfect girlfriend/boyfriend were it not for their BFF, parents, or other close associates.
