In a technological context, this extends beyond human pregnancy to describe any system, entity, or machine that acts as a substitute, vessel, or experiential proxy for another. This can range from a remote-controlled robot avatar (a "surrogate body") exploring a toxic environment, to an AI that serves as a legal or digital surrogate for a person in virtual meetings, to using engineered organisms as living factories to produce chemicals. It's the outsourcing of presence, risk, or biological function.
Surrogacy Example: In the film Surrogates, people live through pristine robotic Surrogate bodies while their real selves lie inert at home. A more near-term example: a scientist using a haptic-feedback-enabled drone as a surrogate to handle dangerous bio samples in a sealed lab from a continent away.

Violent Passion Surrogate 

The inflammatory allegations and viewpoints offered by pundits in the Mainstream Media, calculated to make people feel righteously indignant, angry, and/or fearful.

V.P.S. is great for keeping people divided over pointless issues and bogged down by a never-ending ending stream of misinformation and biased interpretations which exist only within a truncated frame of reference.
Letting yourself be moved by V.P.S., and especially holding it as sound knowledge is anathema to intelligence and progress as it only causes fragmentation and feelings of intellectual and moral superiority.

Etymology: Taken from Aldous Huxley's book, "Brave New World." In that book's planned perfect society, people need a monthly dose of a concoction called V.P.S. to expose their body to all of the violent emotions which their perfect society does not elicit. It is touted having "all of the tonic effects of killing Desdemona and being killed by Othello," and is essential for bodily health.
Example 1
News Junkie: "That fuckin Bill O'Reilly; how can anyone be so stupid and ignorant?"

Rational Thinker: "Relax, He's paid to be inflammatory and administer your Violent Passion Surrogate."

Example 2
Reactionary: "Goddamn Obama is gonna take away my guns and turn this into a socialist country!"
Rational Thinker: "Relax dude, if they're talking about it on the news it's probably not an important issue but a distraction from real goings-on. It's just some Violent Passion Surroagte to keep you from thinking clearly.

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
