Standard English 

Standard English is one of three forms: Proper English, Standard English, and Common English. Until very recently, Standard English encompassed all of normally used English, however, as many forms of communicating on the internet have separated away from normal use, many of the less formal grammar styles and uses (i.e. caps lock, texting abbreviations, etc.) have been classified as Common English. However, any conversation you have with a pre-Millennial will use Standard English, even if it's "Hey, how's it going?" If you are talking to a superior, you will also be using Standard English.

Maoist Standard English 

An internet meme in which any words containing a “k”, a hard ‘c’ sound, or an “s” are modified so that they now read as ‘KKK’ or as ‘SS’. KKK and SS, of course, obviously referencing the respective hate groups. Originating as a form of coded language often used by online maoists, it is now used by much of the broader population, especially on Twitter, to describe racism and far right associations within the thing that they are mentioning. Some also throw it into random sentences as a form of satire.
Maoist Standard English is often used like this:

“Amerikkka is on the decline.”

“KKKapitalism is evil.”

“RepubliKKKans want to make the handmaid’s tale real!!!”

“Fuck BoSSton KKKops!”

“The BoSSton CeltiKKKs”
