    So well put here. This is a very good explanation. If you don't mind me asking, is a CHUD an abbreviation of something or is it just a word assigned/given, like Karen or Jock

      CHUD is an acronym for cannibalistic humanoid undergroud dwellers. It's a reference to movie, but for whatever reason CHUD became the slang term for reactionaries. You'll every now and then see "hog" used the same way.

          It also serves as a good alternative for "white trash" without the classist baggage it comes with.

          Although I'm getting the feeling gammons are going to start calling themselves gammons as a term of endearment.
