>African-American Anyone else notice in the last few months they've almost exclusively switched to "people of color"?
Juan Murphy
PoC should be the next word to fall. Co-opt the word by referring to coloured people as "Pocks" or "Peeyosees" and libs would lose it.
Nathan Stewart
Triggered has sorta become ours to mock them.
Carson Davis
Another good one, absolutely right. Progress: 75%
Robert Cox
global warming.
Nicholas Gomez
They say pock now
Josiah Powell
>Pockie >Pocker
Ethan Lopez
Safe space
Jason Taylor
But the will rain hellfire down upon yee if you say "colored person"
Aaron Williams

Julian Garcia
This is a funny one.
To the right-wing, it's absolutely 100% hilarious and used like a conquered term, but the left won't let go of it. Every university and college has "safe space" shit up and down the curricula.
Eli Miller
Yeah and I will never stop ridiculing it. Luckily my university didn't fall for it, but I've heard some people argue for it. I always act like I never heard of it and react "you mean a place where only feelings count, and logic and reason do not?" They usually stop after that, although you can of course never know for sure whether you've convinced them.
Nathaniel Lewis
Genderfluid.
It's the perfect and perfectly acceptable replacement for faggot.
"What a bunch of genderfluids" - me when referring to a bunch of faggots.
Oliver Johnson
"Horrifying. Today A FUCKING WHITE MALE came up to me and forcibly tattooed a number on my arm before saying all people with empathy and emotions should be death camped [518,562 shares]"
Owen Jackson
Diversity: 10%
Connor Cooper
They're on the defensive. Images of the most sickly, frail, worthless human beings have been paired in the public mind with leftism. Just continue to associate all of those words with that basic pathetic picture and you're all set.
Just like for decades everything coming out of the right was associated with hicks/cowboys/hillbillies etc.
Christian Rogers
This fucking white male from hell gets it.
Owen Morales
That's a tough one but I think we can take it.
We just have to make sure everyone gets that "diversity" means fewer white people.
Nathan Stewart
Sup Forums getting rid of "PoC" would be a credit to the english language. "Colored people" works but "PoC" is just tortured language.
Liberals come up with new terms for shit every decade and don't seem to ever realize the solution to bigotry isn't tortured awkward language.
Justin Morales
I remember some people tried to meme it into DIEversity. Doesn't work, it associates with what an angry ranter (=loser) might conjure when in a fit. Humor and/or framing the original narrative as pathetic is what works.
Tyler White
you're a racist, I'm a racist, everybody is a racist
Joshua Jackson
Can we get rid of the word "problematic"?
This word is postmodern drivel that had no widespread use before the PC movement
Zachary Wood
Cultural appropriation has been dying down. Problematic, too..
Jackson Green
Never heard either of them in a serious manner to be honest.
Asher Wood
Let them have it. Just ask if you can shorten it to colored people.
Lucas Gonzalez
Cultural enrichment was a top tier lefty buzzword in Europe for a while. Shitlord was big on tumblr and with the transvestite anarchist IRC grottos that would regularly come up with "operations" against whitey, often through SRS and horribly mutated "Anonymous" fronts.
Bentley Gutierrez
use it ironically and it will fall into our hands.
Jacob Stewart
>not toxic Absolute cancer contained in 5 letters.
Gabriel Moore
meme fucking warfare
Adam Richardson
It is often used in philosophy/logic to somewhat informally describe a data point that could be a potential defeater to a premise or conclusion.
Again, it's informal. Defeaters are necessarily "problematic" to the arguments they defeat... so it wouldn't be a problem is the term just disappears, but it's just one of those things that was used in the first place because 'experts' in the humanities wanted to sound like they were discussing logical positions.
Jose Cook
Everyone I see this pic I get filled withe disgust
It's like seeing an open wound or shit in your path. It's an evolutionary aversal towards something that carries disease or is, in of itself, a parasite
Cameron Wright
I thought we had sealed the deal on "toxic" and was surprised to learn it's big on Rust (the game) for some reason. They seem to use it with the same definition as the leftists, but the community in-game is decently shitlordy. I think it might be because Melbourne aussie players have had undue influence over the whole culture with their youtubers and significant market share. Just a speculation.
Austin Green
It's just a form of virtue signaling Anyone that doesn't use the term person of color will be automatically labeled a fascist/racist soon enough and their opinion disregarded Basically their way of punking you
Austin Carter
Reminder that PoC conveniently excludes Asian people

Tyler Powell
They'll drop "demagogue" soon since Trump wrecked their shit. Plus it just screams "hey look I own a thesaurus."
Also it sounds like demi-god, which is exactly what Trump is.
Jack Rogers
They've already mainly stopped using it because of exactly that, they get BTFO when you remind them that it's racist to call non-whites "of color".
It is almost entirely out of their vocabulary now.
We should start focusing on reminding them that "queer" has always had a negative connotation to it.
Angel Reyes
I just call em pickers of cotton
Kayden Jenkins
I found out that this is a phenomenon called the euphemism treadmill.
A group of people keeps trying to come up with terms to try to meme the underlying sentiment away, and it doesn't work. > Control the words > Control the thoughts
Matthew Roberts
>Liberals come up with new terms for shit every decade And every generation is more batshit than the last. We can encourage their illness while having fun and increasing courage in people who are scared to side with us from years of indoctrination.
Ian Stewart
we've also co-opted "triggered". I can die in peace if the word "nigger" comes to be a commonly used term to refer to degenerate blacks.
Liam Gutierrez
I love PoC because I always read it as "perpetrator of crime"
