Halfcaste 

Half-caste: adjective
\ ˈhaf-ˌkast , ˈhäf- \

A common, self-applied term used in 80s and 90s Britain to refer to someone specifically half white/half black. "Brownin" was the alternative expression. Halfcaste is still used in the 2020s by said demographic but the new term "mixed-race" superseded it around the late 2000s as the younger generations terms took over. You can also hear "halfcaste/halfco" used widely today in Africa in places like Ghana, Kenya and Nigeria etc to refer to someone half black and half of another race. They also use a product in Africa called halfcaste bleaching cream.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
