Flaccism (n.): a policy or attitude of "soft bigotry", positing that members of a particular group (women, minorities, et cetera) ought to be held to lower standards, and that mediocre performances from a member of that group should be celebrated as much as, or more than, excellence in performance from those held to "normal" standards. Infantilizing condescension usually intended to virtue-signal, showing that the "flaccist" is morally superior.
"So you're saying that Anita Sarkeesian actually used a speaker's podium to bully some guys and got away with it?"
"Yup, Flaccism at work!"

The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"
