the act of expressing one's self in an immoral or social unacceptable way publicly and then attempting to use another immoral or social unacceptable ill to defend themselves.
when one is highly critical of a group of people and beliefs, especially those of a minority class, almost to fanatical levels but, when called out on their criticism, will attempt to use that judgment or prejudice in their favor against their detractors.
when one is clearly racist towards a minority group but, will say that anyone calling them racist for this action is obviously a racist themselves for pointing this out.
fake outrage.

after being called out for her racist viewpoints towards immigrants and the diversity in America, Laura Ingraham was quick to use her obvious FAUXISM of being an oppressed white person not being able to speak about the racism towards other white people as a turning point in the argument.

Get the fauxism mug.Mask-wearing, frequent hand washing, social distancing and avoiding large gatherings of people in an effort to stop the spread of COVID-19 among the populace. Named after Infectious Disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci.
Expecting me to wear a mask, wash my hands and socially distancing takes away my freedom. It’s the downright tyranny of Faucism!

Get the Faucism mug."Science" by decree in service of a favored political narrative. Relies heavily on modelling and cherry picking data to support the predetermined conclusion, while using institutions of power to suppress and censor actual scientific inquiry and debate. Basically Lysenkoism.

Get the fauxsme mug.A woman with a penchant for wearing faux designer duds and carrying knock-off designer handbags. A faux fashionista.
Everytime I see Salima she's always wearing those awful knock-off Chanel sunglasses with her too big to actually be a Chloe handbag. She's such a fauxista!

Oh My Gosh, That guy can't really have Autism. He too good at sports. He must have Fauxtism, just to get sympathy.

Get the Fauxtism mug.The belief that government should take unilateral control over the lives of an entire nation under the guise of an unending national emergency. Often, faucist look towards a figurehead who has no personal accountability and cannot be disposed from their office. The figurehead does not dictate policy and only repeats talking points, but is used as a shield from all criticism. Scholars believe faucism is more akin to a religion than a political movement (ie, belief in an infallible force, the gospel of the figurehead must be spread, holding contradictory beliefs without evidence).
