It's the term that describes those communists who cheered on the Soviet Union’s violent crushing of the 1956 Hungary revolution protests.

The term is often used when someone claims they support leftist ideals but pushes for authoritarianism.

I get the original etymology. Nowadays it's carelessly used and appropriated like 'woke'

What about "lib" and "zio"?

Those are kind of new and exciting. All the kids are doing it.

I'm pretty sure those are used accurately as specific types of fascists.

Did you know that was recently revealed (through Trump's jfk doc dump) to be yet another CIA backed fake color revolution?
