systemic victimhood 

All of the factors in a social system that that perpetuate, enable, and incentivize the adoption of identities based in victimhood.
"Why are people listing their ailments in their Twitter bios?"

"Oh, it's a great way to rack up intersectional points and climb up a few tiers in the victim hierarchy."

"Why would they want to do that?"

"Because with victimhood comes a whole bunch of perks. If you are a victim, you always have an excuse to fail. You always have a hypothetical oppressor to blame. You are given license to censure anyone who disagrees with you. You receive an abundance of pity. And best of all, you get to envision yourself as the noble underdog struggling in the next big civil rights movement!"

"That sounds pathological."

"That's because it is... and it is all a product of systemic victimhood."

Systemic Dysgenics 

An evil pervasive phenomenon in which "politicians" weaponize fake altruism to multiply dependents and erode the nuclear family by forcible transfer of resources from beings engaged in monogamous responsible k-selected behavior to beings that practice promiscuous, irresponsible r-selected behavior.
The most telling sign that America is doomed is the unending transfer of energy and resources from intact nuclear families to promiscuous fickle single mothers of (often) multiple children from different equally degenerate absent fathers; the systemic dysgenics of social welfare is proliferating and incentivizing r-selected behavior in an ecosystem already in peril.

Systemic racism 

Literally EVERYTHING is racism to you. I see what you're talking about but it's a broader issue and your solution only fixes the problem for SOME of the black people (Of which I AM in case we forgot who we're talking to) and the underlying problem will remain.

Hym "So let's say you get your way. Let's say in your autistic need to get the rates of things to match, you succeed and the adequate number of black people, women, ect... What then? The person who inevitably replaces them needs to be black.
Does this only apply to appointed positions or do we need a proportionate number of elected officials? All black primary? Should only black people vote? How could a white man know who could best govern as a representative of black people? It's retarded and it's based on an a priopi presupposition that a black person would govern or make decisions in a black way and that they would promote other black people instead of doing what the people currently in power do (which is shamelessly promote themselves). Which is racist. It's retarded and racist. I want them to do it. No, really. I want them to do it so that when nothing happens, you have to sit there and look stupid and explain to me why it didn't do anything. It's nothing more than politic tokenism. 'OoOo Look! It's superman! But black now!' 😱 And I'm supposed to sit that and be like 🙌🤨 'Hurray?' But what does it accomplish? Nothing. An entirely cosmetic solution to real world problems. It accomplishs about as much changing your skin in a video-game. Guaranteed employment for a handful of random black people and everything stays the same for everyone else... including other black people. Your 'Fixing systemic racism'thing is pointless. It's about as pointless as going to space (And I'll explain in the next one)."

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
