Emotarian 

A more descriptive and catchier synonym for emo progressive or puritopian.

An Emotarian usually arrives at all of their political positions through an emotional calculus rather than a rational one; a formula by which any issue can be understood through the lens of unyielding idealism, with little regard for history or precedent, and fiercely defended to the point where any pragmatic thinking or compromise must be viciously characterized as "selling out," even at the expense of some immediate political gain over previous political conditions. They are particularly prone to assigning bad faith and evil motive to any democratic President who refuses to make speeches that sound as if Noam Chomsky, Dennis Kucinich or Michael Moore wrote them.

Emotarians are upset with President Obama for threatening to use force against Syria. They believe all war is bad, thus, any use of force—or threat to use force—is unjustified, and further evidence that the President must be a malignant fascist tool of a global corporate plutocracy.

Emotarian 

combination of the "emo" fad with the "vegetarian" movement- into a single group of people. (This is done for right wing meat eating gun toting men/women who want to save time when saying 'emo and vegetarians'. they are combined into one very similar easily hated group to save time)

Look at that damn emotarian over there whining about some crap that no one cares about... Go fall out.. boy. Try eating some freaking meat so I can't wrap my hands around your waist and squish you... or maybe you should just go painc at the disco.

Adopt a Emotarian: For every peice of meat they don't eat, you eat three.

Entotarianism 

Similar Terms: Entotarian, Ento-Vegetarian, Entovegetarian, Ento-Vegan, Entovegan

“Entotarianism” is a protologism coined online in the 2010s. It’s the practice of eating insects + arachnids (and sometimes larvae/worms, myriapods & isopods) while abstaining from meat.
All these animals are often colloquially called “bugs” in America even though only certain insects are true bugs by definition.

Adherents of entotarianism may label themselves “entotarians” at risk of bemusing others since the term is unfamiliar (entotarianism & similar terms are so rarely searched that you can’t even run them through GoogleTrends)
Entotarian is a blend of “éntomon” (“insect” in Greek) w/ “vegetarian”—matching other diet terms that have the same pattern but are more established, popular & understood. {Examples: vegetation+ -arian (as in agrarian)= Vegetarian, pesce+vegetarian= Pescetarian, lac/lacticinia +vegetarian= Lactarian, fruit+vegetarian= Fruitarian} BUT this term is informal slang & unestablished since it’s niche jargon. No mainstream dictionaries list it nor have any prevalence studies been done. It’s likely very rare since entomophagy (insect consumption) is common in regions where protein-sources are scarcer. Adopting a non-medical dietary-restriction is rarer in these areas than in affluent countries where more people have the luxury to choose to reject an entire food group.
Entotarianism is rare in the west due to low-accessibility of bug-products & low-willingness to eat bugs.

Entotarian: “You guys should try my energy bars made from ground crickets made into a flour!”

Vegans, Vegetarians, Pescetarians, Flexitarian Meat-Limiters, Omnivorous Meat-Eaters, Carnivorous Meat-Lovers: “Eww, no freaking way”

Entotarian: “Billions of people eat insects! And have you heard of entotarianism? Hear me out before you say it sounds gross and weird.”

Everyone: “It sounds gross and weird.”

Entotarian: “They’re organic, meatless, low-carb, high-protein, high in essential aminos, high in antioxidants, highly-prebiotic, anti-inflammatory, sugar-free, dairy-free, gluten-free, soy-free, carbon-neutral, sustainably-produced and humanely-raised! They’re also a viable source of zinc, iron, B5, B7, B12, good fats, insoluble fiber…

Everyone: “No” **Walks away revolted**
