What phrases/sentences instantly reveal someone as a chud? - Lemmy.World

For me it’s saying, “we can’t joke about anything anymore”. Sirens go off immediately 🚨

Words that used unironically/outside of satire, automatically signal you as a chud:

  • Libtard

  • Foid

  • Carnist

  • Lookmaxxing

  • Mog/Mogging

  • Any kind of slur

  • Woke (at least, the word is generally only brought up now by chuds complaining about things being woke)

  • DEI in a negative manner

I think it’s incel for having a shower.

I think the way to read the whole -maxxing suffix is “to maximise what comes before”

So lookmaxxing is to maximise ones looks. I find the usage of the double x irksome, personally.

If I understand it right it’s basically polishing your external appearance to a high degree. Hair, skincare, etc… but I’ve seen it mostly used to describe people using the technique transactionally. Like incels doing it with the expectation that doing so will result in a girl appearing for them.
