peasantvision
Postmodern televised redux of the medieval bread and circus, and capitalist propaganda arm for established business elite. This medium focuses heavily on highly funded advertisements, blatant disinformation, sophomoric content, and other diversionary programming of little cultural value. Peasantvision predominantly serves hidden interest groups and functions to blur distinctions between information, entertainment and advertising in order to corporately engineer consumer conformity, mass ignorance and submission to commercial hierarchies. Pejoratively named peasantvision due to the relatively low socio-economic status of its most frequent users.
The wonders of peasantvision have let Americans enjoy stimulating and life changing events like the birth of Anna Nicole Smith’s baby, the plight of OJ Simpson and the neverending sexual high-jinks of Paris Hilton.

Blexas
Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.
Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.

Ratfucker
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.
