pop-left 

The left wing answer to the alt-right: dumb, uninformed angry people on the internet getting themselves worked up about trivial feel-good causes and superficial social justice issues while ignoring actual left-wing values like worker's rights, environmental protection, and actual social justice. Found on places like Tumblr, Huffington Post, and Upworthy.
The pop-left is protesting about student housing officials at Harvard being called "House Masters", from the latin "Magister" or "teacher". In other news, a Walmart employees' union has been shut down, a Mississippi judge was caught accepting bribes for sending innocent people to private prisons, and a carbon-limiting treaty was rejected, but no one cares.

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
