As A Black Man 

Oft-seen preface - the specific demographic used can vary, but "black" is the most frequent and iconic form - to statements disparaging minorities or defending discriminatory actions and policies posted on internet forums, social media and other communication systems that allow for high levels of anonymity and identity spoofing. Also the catch-all term used to refer to this practice. A very strong indicator - not 100%, but with a high level of confidence nevertheless - that the person making said statement is not black or a member of whatever minority community the preface may be modified to apply to, but merely using the guise of being such a member to avoid criticism. Scrutiny of accounts that use this sort of statement often reveals them to be sockpuppet accounts primarily used to promote anti-minority ideologies or unearths conflicting statements showing the account user to be lying about their identity as a part of promoting aforementioned anti-minority ideology. Occasionally outs these individuals due to use of the statement on their "normal" accounts due to forgetting to switch to their sockpuppet before posting, as in the case of Dean Browning, a white Republican political activist in Pennsylvania.
@DeanBrowningPA, whose icon is his fat white face: What Trump built in 4 years, Biden will destroy in 4 months

@SomeDude: You mean what Obama built in 8 years, Trump trying to take credit for the first 3 years, then destroyed in 3 months with help from the "Trump Virus."

@DeanBrowningPA: As a black man I can personally say that Obama did nothing for me, my life only changed a little bit and it was for the worse. Everything is so much better under Trump though.

@SomeDude: "As a black man"? What the FUCK, dude?

@DeanBrowningPA: I was quoting a message that I received earlier this week from a follower.

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
