      Do real life people actually use the Chad/simp/soyboy lingo outside of reddit or 4chan? Because if so I think I might have just lost even more faith in humanity. As an atheist, Jesus please take the wheel!

        I feel like I don't need to tell you this, but don't watch Paul Joseph Watson.

          Australia’s leader of the opposition called the PM a simp earlier this week.

          Scotty from marketing being called a simp? Seriously? :che-smile: :che-smile: :che-smile:

              In South Africa parties try use local internet lingo to try appeal to the youth. The worst example has to be when the so called "left wing" party (they're really not, that's another story) tried to explain Marxist theory though WhatsApp lingo like "blue ticks" (WhatsApp puts 2 blue ticks next to a message that has been read) and shit. Real condescending hours there

                      Freedom front plus is the party that wants apartheid back so no surprise there. They have been emboldened by the US op around white farm murders, which got them 5% of the vote last time. The EFF says a lot of good things, but their actions reveal their true intentions, I mean this is a massive fuck up: https://www.sowetanlive.co.za/news/south-africa/2020-04-15-eff-councillors-against-33-solidarity-fund-contribution/
