The Young Turks 

Share definition Flag
The Young Turks was a once awesome progressive news show on YouTube hosted by Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian with over 3 million subscribers and 3 billion views. Founded by Cenk Uygur in 2002, it was dubbed "the first internet news show" and as a result became very successful. Their success however has been halted, as the show is now past its prime and the ratings are not nearly as good. Unfortunately, for the past few years TYT has taken a steady decline. As of late, they have embraced SJW culture and feminism and are ruining what it means to be a progressive, by embracing regressivism instead. In addition to that, they have also become polarizing and extremely liberal as they slander Trump and the Republican Party at every chance they get. And embarrassingly enough, they have become so careless and slanted in their coverage that other YouTube channels have debunked their videos countless times, exposing the logical inaccuracies in each video. Perhaps the only redeemable thing that they have done recently is endorse Bernie Sanders. But other than that, TYT is past its prime and is getting PROGRESSIVEly worse as we speak.

The Young Turds 

Share definition Flag
A "news network" on Youtube that holds liberal opinions and is often overrun in the comments section by MRAs, college-aged liberals, fedora-wearing atheists, and other assorted numbskulls. TYT is often surprisingly short on intellectual content, and is made more banal by its staff members, such as:

Chunk Ogre - A mentally-challenged orangutan who disputes the historicity of the Armenian Holocaust, and is usually the first to talk about how lucky that 5-year-old boys who get molested by their female babysitters are. He tends to be overweight because his only exercise comes in the form of hand-waiving the notion that Islamic extremism is bad.

Ana Assparian - Gives the pussy-starved "nice guys" and MRAs in the comment section a reason to add a few more blisters to their tiny dicks and drool over something that isn't related to a congenital defect for a change. She expressed the sentiments of many regarding her co-worker Chunk when she yelled "Get off the stage, you fat fuck!" at Alex Jones.

John Iadorola - Sometimes make an appearance on TYT, but is more often spotted on "Think Tank," where he can be found doing the exact opposite. The hosts of this ironically-named segment can be found supplying deep and relevant information, such as "Do goats fake orgasms?" "How to tell if a goat is faking an orgasm," and "We asked goats to vote on what gives them orgasms: here's the top 10 responses."

They also have a bunch of other losers that nobody cares about.
The Young Turds (TYT) is the favorite source of news for those that are in college, but somehow have the reading and listening comprehension of a mentally-challenged, Red Bull-chugging goblin.

The silent, deadly forces lurk, waiting to smite the mainstream media into obscurity. They are The Young Turks, leaders of TYT Nation and generals of the TYT army. Lead by perennial badasses Cenk Uygur, Ana Kasparian, Jayar Jackson, Jesus Godoy, and the massive might of the TYT army, The Young Turks are taking over, slowly but surely. Resist at your peril
Random guy: Who are TheYoungTurks?

TYT Follower: The TYT army...just too strong

Striver 

Share definition Flag
The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.
Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Successful strivers:
- Barack Obama
- Harold Koh
