"Current year" terms that piss you off

I started using "people of crime" but haven't seen much traction for it. I'll have to keep that one in mind for fatties.
I call them call them cholesterally challenged.

"Media Literacy"
The sad thing is I actually really like the term and think it is something that is important in it's definition for understanding context when reading a piece of literature. There is so many works of fiction that should actually be looked at with nuance and a lot of the time what's presented isn't really the central message or theme of a story. Absolutely.
But the ONLY TIME I ever see it being used is in the most reddit-tier, pozzed ways, usually by people that probably have the least amount of media literacy imaginable. These types are the ones that term should have been invented for, rather than used by.
It's the most ironic term I've seen in it's use considering everytime it's used in a modern day context it's something like this:

In essence: use critical thinking skills to embrace media the way WE tell you to do so you can engage in the community as a productive prole member of society. Also, news is AWESUUM!!
Really fucking terrifying how easy it is to see the confident retardation at display sometimes and even more so to realize it works on most people.
 
Not a current year term exactly but I hate the way "edgy" is used now. It used to be a word reserved for people who thought Hatred was the true 2015 GOTY and made death threats on social media to random people. Now it's just another word abused and overused by the left to mean anything they don't like. Someone doesn't believe the COVID vaccine is safe and effective? Stop being so edgy. Still believe in the gender binary? Wow, so much edge. Think the Earth is flat and the moon landing was faked? We got an edgelord over here!

Although, calling Flat Earthers edgy is kind of funny when you think about it
 
The word “adjunct” professor fucks me off to no end!
Can’t you just use the term “assistant”professor instead of a word that’s difficult as rock candy in the modern age to pronounce?

Because "assistant professor" refers to a professor with an actual tenure track position.
 
"Be a man." Nigga, what does it mean to be a man?

Is it suppressing your emotions and suffering alone? Having a hard life? Getting into fights and getting yourself needlessly hurt? Going to war and getting PTSD?

This shit is arbitrary, retarded, and distracting you from what you really need to be doing with your life; not as a man but as a person: Be healthy, learn what makes you happy, and don't be a tranny.

An actual boomer, conservative one I hate:
Mollycoddle
"Oh you don't like the fact that I abuse my child and he's in abject pain specifically because of me? Oh shit I can't engage in any conversation without the least bit of tact? Well I ain't gonna mollycoddle anyone."
It's like tough love. There's a time to be firm but the only time I've ever heard the term unironically used is by actual sociopaths who (surprise, surprise) have major emotional conniptions whenever anyone else calls them out or doesn't indulge them in their own problems.

That's another one. The only people I've ever heard say it are pathetic manchildren who are projecting their own issues onto people less than half their age. The shadow projection of gen-x is a bit daft sometimes. It's kind of the opposite end of the (autistm) spectrum to 'men can cry, too.' It's telling someone else to do/be the type of person you inherently aren't. If you want someone to be a man, don't be the reverse role-model of one.

Stochastic terrorism. Anyone using the term unironically is a retard of the highest calibre. Now speech you don't like isn't only hate speech, it's literally terrorism. If you applied it consistently, the Beatles would be responsible for Manson Family murders.
Agree with you 100%. The destruction of terms like terrorist, nazi, supremacist, ect is staggering. He'll, even "violence" has become so watered down as to be largely meaningless.
Also, these retards seem to get their hands on a thesaurus and play elementary level word of the day games. The debasement of the English language is nothing short of stochastic terrorism.
 
Like I said, SJWs fixate on the word "community", using it to describe people with a common trait even if no real community between them. They can take it even further and come up with stuff like "community defense" - which seems to be doublespeak for a mob-like alternative to police handling an issue - and undoubtedly other terms involving "community" that weren't things before the 2010s.

This Current Year fixation on "community" sounds rather communist...

Constant divisions and sub divisions and sub sub divisions of people is making things worse. Everyone is placed in a matryoshka of boxes under the guise that it actually makes everything better and stronger. But it's weakening society and creating huge divides.

"It's essential so we can fully participate in S O C I E T Y." - that "infographic"

I've also mentioned the cult obsession with "society" - seems jerks refer to "society" more than non-jerks. And of course hiveminded SJWs like using collectivist terms.

Constant divisions and sub divisions and sub sub divisions of people is making things worse.
That's "identity politics" - the woke cult says there's a reviled or sacred identity one is lumped together with, and "marginalized-oppressor" politics between identities.

So while the SJW want whites to be hiveminded cultists backed into a corner of misery - where just about everything is "problematic" that isn't preaching woke - they also want everyone rigidly divided (and conquered) into pigeonholed categories based on identities.

I saw the BBC say an actress on a popular show “identifies as Asian”.
Identifies as Asian is the equivalent of preferred pronouns, or more saying if someone prefers Ms or Miss/Mrs.

Since "Asian" is kind of meaningless / kind of not, some people believe it is a preference to say whether you want to be referred to as Asian, Chinese, etc..

"media with greater diversity" - why don't they signalboost media that is produced in developing countries?
And also, where do YOU get news and information?

It's interesting also that the infographic is from Australia and they talk about being an "active citizen", Australia is a country where you get fined if you don't vote and can lose the right if you don't use it. Talk about needing to be active

The part about needing to confirm news... so basically teaching the ways of the kiwifarm autism?

The fact that some streaming services warn people that the said movie was politically incorrect because our current generations can't handle real life. I was watching Aladdin (the superior 1992 animated version) on Disney + and I saw that warning firsthand before the movie started. To these Social Justice Warriors and Barbaric Muslims, it's a indication that they're probably gonna shit their pants when watching the movie. To me though, It's an indication that this movie is based. But yeah, this film mentions the barbarity of the Islamic religion and many aspects of Sharia Law. It's something you just can't get away now in a Disney movie, let alone a G-Rated film in general nowadays anymore. I also hate how Disney still tries to hide Song of the South to this day.
 
"Religious trauma." I used to see it only being used sporadically but now every other lispy faggot and BPD e-girl on Twitter claims to have it, especially now that Lana Del Rey included her Hillsong pastor in her new album. I thought it would be term reserved for people getting out of fucked-up fundie Muslim or Amish or whatever households, but nope, 99% of the people using it merely had to get up for church on Sunday or heard a sermon that hurt their feelings.

On a related note, "generational trauma." Never seems to be said by people born into a lineage marred by genocide or murder or severe abuse, just "my grandparents passed on some unfavorable parenting strategies onto my parents and now I'm SUFFERING!"

I was about to make a joke about how "educational trauma" bitching about being put in a shitty lunch bloc will be a thing within 5 years but turns out it already exists.
