To accuse someone of some form of "ism" (sexism, racism etc.) and to proclaim that their denial, or any attempt they make to defend themselves, is proof that they are guilty. A favorite tactic of the social justice warrior.
"Your refusal to admit that you are a misogynist proves you're a misogynist."

A bootleg "logical fallacy" that weird dudes who spend way too much time on the computer like to invoke as if it's actually a thing outside of weird-computer-dude world.
"Uh holy shit that's super racist"
"No it isn't"
"Yyyeah dude, it is"
"Ah. So I'm being accused of being a racist, apparently. I see. So suddenly I'm the worst person in the world, and I'm literally being sentenced to a million years in the gulag, for being guilty of racist thought crimes, supposedly. I see how it is. Nice try at kafkatrapping me though. Wait til the completely normal boys over on KotakuInAction hear about this one."

Kankakrappy 

To describe a northeast Illinois city named Kankakee which has a disproportionate number of boarded rental units to active single-family homes, numerous run-down neighborhoods, kids on the corners begging for money, and "adults" who don't pay their bills, but continue to soak the government for public aid so they can buy electronics and drugs. A very poor town unmotivated to clean its image. A town many people leave only to find that the world is not such a bad and ugly place.

Kankakrappy is a city unlike any other. No one actually desires to live there. Citizens from surrounding towns are embarrassed to say they're near there. The people who bear the misfortune of being born in Kankakrappy somehow wind up stuck in the town like the way dog shit sticks to your shoes long after you think you've finally got them clean. Outsiders are never welcome, and will be forced out either through crime, drugs, prostitution, theft, or just plain suffocation from a hefty saturation of stupid-juice poured out by the town as a whole.
Victor: I live in Orlando, where are you from?

Denise: I'm from Kankakrappy.

Victor: Oh man!!! WTF?!??!? I've heard of that place. Wasn't it ranked the worst place to live in America a while back?

Denise: Yep. And everyday it just keeps getting better. My cousin still lives there. She's hooked on weed, and just bought a new IPOD. She hasn't paid her rent or her utility bills in 3 months, and now she might have to move because she's got fleas. She blames her landlord. She said she's going to have one of her sons piss in every corner of her place before she leaves, though. She's a real piece of shit.

Vic: Sounds like they should just evacuate the town, tear it down and start over . . .

kafka trap 

A logical fallacy which states that a condition is affirmed through someone's denial. This term was written about in Franz Kafka's story "The Trial", hence why it is named after him.

Commonly associated with the social [justice warrior] or noted racist Ibram Kendi, who states that anyone who claims they are not a racist must be a racist. However, the denial can be about anything.
"Your denial of racism is proof that you are racist."
"That's a kafka trap, learn how to think."

city chicken 

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.
