irony poisoning

Irony poisoning is when one's worldview/weltshauung/reality tunnel is so dominated by irony and detachment-based-comedy, that the joke becomes real and you start to do things that are immoral or wrong from a place of deep nihilistic cynicism.

"Why would John do this to me?"
"It's irony poisoning, ma'am. Seen it a million times."

Partyboat Nihilism

The primary ideology of planet earth. The idea is "we are fucked, everything is fucked, nothing can be stopped, there are no plausible ways to be a moral person anymore, therefore, let us party indefinitely."

It's an ideology that is present in the ruling classes as well as the working classes around the world. It has destructive implications in that it is a performative self-fulfilling prophecy.

"I used to be a libertarian. Now I don't really keep up with politics anymore. I believe in Partyboat Nihilism. Shots! shots! shots!"

Nothing Master

An insulting term for someone who not only doesn't have any plan themselves, but actively undermines the plans and productivity of others

Someone who will argue in the contrary no matter what, drains others of productive energy, and slows down the progress of others.

"That nothing master Chris keeps on telling me that everything is hopeless and I should give up"

Piss Fascist

A derogatory term for someone who must have everyone agree with their opinion at all times. Or otherwise has to constantly state their opinions on issues in inappropriate contexts.

The breakdown is:
"Piss" refers to their opinion. It is piss-like because it is unwelcome. They are making you metaphorically 'drink their piss' by not leaving you alone.

'Fascist' refers to their mandatory grip on your perceptions. They must subject you to their piss, no matter what you would prefer. It is the piss fascist's nature.

<soapboxes for 20 minutes about fluoride toxicity>
"Don't be a Piss Fascist, we're just trying to hang out."

Or for those who "take it back":
"I'm a Piss Fascist and proud. If you're hanging out with me, you have to get on my level. I'll swim in your opinion piss if you swim in mine."

Hedgy

A type of humor that postures itself as edgy, but rather than being a subversive challenge to unjust hegemonic belief systems, hedgyness reenforces them

"hey bro you know I love you but that joke about homeless people was super hedgy"
"you're right bro thanks for checking me on that. cruelty to homeless people does reenforce unjust hegemonic power structures, and that's not being a good bro to my fellow humans."

sunglasses-warrior

A pejorative term for someone who tries too hard to aggressively assert their coolness, their detachment, their apathy. Someone who is happy to point out the hopelessness of problems, and unwilling to put work into fixing them.

"Who cares? Everyone has known this forever. There is nothing we can do."
"Ooh, cool. You're a sunglasses-warrior. I'm so impressed with how jaded you are."
