Soft Detroit

The misheard lyric in Journey's song "Don't Stop Believin". While the real lyric is "South Detroit", many drunk college girls can be seen at the bars on a Thursday or Friday night with one hand on a beer and another as high as they can get it screaming this incorrect lyric.

"Just a city boy, born and raised in soft Detroit!" screamed the drunk college students. "Haha, what the hell is soft Detroit?" replied some less drunk college students.

Detroit Effect

The slow, steady decay of a great city by the exodus of white folks as they are replaced by other minorities, making the entire city an inner city ghetto.

Birmingham, England has experienced a great Detroit Effect, and is now entirely a Muslim enclave.

detroit republican

A term coined by Congressman Rand Paul during 2016 presidential election. Likely influenced by money manager Mark Spitznagel's comments and essay 'Austrian Detriot.' In the2013 article, Spitznagel talks about Detroit's bankruptcy as caused by city-government financed public debt 'financial instruments.' In these psuedo-financial agreements, bond buyers receive a scheduled return from tax payers choosing to fulfilling obligations their political representatives have unrealistically co-signed them to.

He states this as a positive event that signals that Detroit citizen's dependence on an overgrown parasytic public sector is the root cause of the city's infrastructural woes. The (eventual) natural outcome will be for citizens to recognize that the officials it has been electing have been engaging in unneccessary and maleficial agreements, and that a much smaller government will regenerate, with new, more effective and responsible organization to it.

There's no way Jim's gonna agree to putting that unnessary tax on the working man.Jim's a detroit republican.

Detroit Syndrome

When a nigga listens to too much fire Detroit music created by artists like RMC Mike, AK Bandamont, GRINDHARD E, Rio Da Yung OG, Krispylife Kidd etc…

The early stages of Detroit syndrome may include symptoms like mental decline, confusion while exposed to other musical genres, disorientation, inability to speak or understand language, making things up, mental confusion, or inability to recognize common phrases.

In the early stages it is usually curable by prescribing other music genres to the patient but by the late stages it is usually irreversible.

Late stage symptoms include: social isolation, disorganized behavior, aggression, agitation, compulsive behavior, excitability, hostility, repetitive movements, self-harm, lack of restraint, delirium, and hallucinations.

Person 1: “Bro Jeremy has been acting weird recently, I don’t know what’s going on with him”

Person 2: “Oh don’t worry he was suffering from early stage Detroit Syndrome but I’ve got him listening to cloud rap now so he should be fine by the end of the week”
