I think an even older generation would ut their slang in the strong soyjack section and would put yours in the stupid soyjack section.

    Foid and Goyim aren't normal slang, they're slurs used by fascist weirdos. -maxxing is only used by non-fascist weirdos in ironic contexts.

    Oh no, kids today speak as differently to us as we did to prior generations, how cringe!

    Let's go, there's a Gammelfleischparty at the club tonight.

    If you think dehumanizing women is just "kids speaking differently today" then I don't know what to tell you...

    A lot of modern slang started on right wing sections of 4Chan and is full of Jewish words intentionally used as code to make fun of them. EtymologyNerd on YouTube has talked about the right leaning origin of slang some

    NGL I like "-maxxing" because of how versatile it is.

    "Whatever" is hardly slang, however.

    This post has a remarkably low amount of diggity.

    Wait, wait, I'm still confused. Is diggity a good thing or not? Should I be aiming for an overwelming surplus of it, and if I should, is it really surplus, or should I be trying to expunge it from my life entirely?

    Look, Gen Z has some stinkers ("that's fire," sucks, and that's coming from the generation that gave you, "hella,"), but their use of Chud is spectacular. A perfect encapsulation of every grubby, right-wing freak from incels to groypers. A near perfect onomatopoeia.

    I’m not really fond of signaling disrespect like this. I like to encourage respect.

    Education time.

    Dashiell Hammett was a WW1 veteran who fought the Army for the right to join up to fight Hitler. After the war he was sent to jail for refusing to name names when the government wanted to know who was in the Communist Party.

    After working as a real life detective, Hammett turned to writing crime fiction. In one of his stories he used authentic crook slang. 'The rag lay' was stealing laundry off of clothes lines. It was the kind of thing only the lowest miscreants would do. His editor censored 'the rag lay' because it sounded dirty to him. Hammett didn't raise a fuss, but in his next story he had his hero call a cheap crook a 'gunsel' and a 'punk.'

    'Gunsel' and 'punk' were both slang for men who offered sex for protection in prison.
