Cheetolini

Blend of Cheeto + Mussolini, referencing the resemblance of Trump's facial complexion with the color of Cheetos and his perceived political similarity to Benito Mussolini.

Trying to keep Cheetolini from destroying incriminating evidence hardly qualifies, IMO.

David Cameron today pledged to create communities with “oomph”, as he launched the Tory vision of a “big society” that would involve a dramatic redistribution of power from “the elite in Whitehall to the man and woman on the street”.

2010 July 19, Nicholas Watt, “David Cameron reveals ‘big society’ vision – and denies it is just cost cutting”, in The Guardian:

Blue Labour thinking, here, converges seamlessly with Cameron's “big society”.

2011 May 21, Ed Rooksby, “Don't underestimate toxic Blue Labour”, in The Guardian:

Not only were charities facing “crippling spending cuts”, but the government had also lost its way without a clear narrative to deliver the big society, he said.

2013 March 5, Peter Hetherington, quoting Stephen Bubb, “Is this the end of Cameron's big society?”, in The Guardian:

At first it sounded quite lovely, didn’t it? The notion of a “big society” – back in those heady days when David Cameron and Nick Clegg stood side by side in the Downing Street garden.

2019 January 28, Michael Segalov, “Forget the ‘big society’. Austerity is to blame for this army of volunteers”, in The Guardian:

(UK politics) A conservative-liberal policy advocating the strengthening of local government and communities.

There's a current fan-myth that Mulan was directly inspired by Mononoke, which is incredibly unlikely given Disney's film began production long before Ghibli's. (Unless the Mouse Kingdom ransacked Miyazaki's early treatments - which were a variant on the Beauty and the Beast story, with a young girl forced to marry a mononoke (monster)).

In this admirable work an authentic account is given of that tract of the earth's surface to which in these columns we have sometimes ventured to give the name Sinesia—the Far East, that immense Asiatic region which nature has isolated from the rest of the world by deserts, mountains, and seas... Now, through Japan, the West has made a definite breach in Sinensian exclusiveness; even China is assuredly following....

Many later scholars have agreed with Tolkien on his general declarations about his languages (for example, that the Elvish languages are ‘beautiful’, while the Black Speech is cacophonous or that the languages originated Tolkien’s mythology) and skipped the whole issue of the role of the langauges in his fiction by treating them as a fanciful accessory unworthy of independent study.

Gigachad

From giga- + Chad. Coined by an anonymous poster on the 4chan /pol/ board on October 17th, 2017, who described Russian model Ernest Khalimov as a "gigachad" who was "the perfect human specimen destined to lead us against the reptilians" (see quotation below).

Alternative form: GigaChad

Years of Bogdanoff research into genetic augmentation has finally yielded fruit. ¶ Behold, the Gigachad. The perfect human specimen destined to lead us against the reptilians. ¶ We are all witness.

2017 October 16, 4chan, /pol/, archived from the original on 2023-04-18:

This gets even weirder, though. Since every photo of him seems to have been taken and released by the artist Krista Sudmalis, whose ongoing "Sleek'N'Tears" project is his lone credit — and there he is exclusively referred to as "1969" — it's fair to suspect that GigaChad is almost entirely Sudmalis' digital creation.

2021 February 1, Miles Klee, “Who Is GigaChad: Meme, Digital Creation or Russian Model?”, in MEL Magazine, archived from the original on 2024-01-06:

"GigaChad" (also known as "Average Enjoyer") is Russian menswear model and bodybuilder Ernest Khalimov. Aside from the "GigaChad" memes, he isn't very well-known. Even in the "Sleek'N'Tears" project, he was exclusively known as "1969," so it's fair that a lot of people are surprised to hear that he's a real person.

2021 May 3, Lyshiel Aranal, Trixie Velasquez, “'Thanks for your kind words': GigaChad finally responds to the memes”, in Pop Inquirer, archived from the original on 2023-12-02:

This is no more true for Ernest Khalimov - AKA GigaChad - who has garnered so much acclaim for his good looks and chiseled physique that people have even questioned his own existence.

2021 October 19, Jacob Bentley-York, “Who is Ernest Khalimov AKA GigaChad and what is the Chad meme?”, in The US Sun, archived from the original on 2024-01-14:

Talcum X

Blend of talcum + Malcolm X, in reference to the white color of talcum powder, as well as allegations that Shaun King lied about his race.

Sunakism

This is Sunakism: a belief that it’s suicidal for any government to depend on high borrowing and low interest rates, because those rates could surge at any time.

2020 December 19, Katy Balls, Fraser Nelson, “‘It’s not morally right to keep borrowing at these levels’: Rishi Sunak’s plan to fix the UK economy”, in The Spectator:

But for the time being, it feels as though Johnsonism – with its infrastructure spending and red wall handouts – is winning out over whatever Sunakism might turn out to be.

2021 October 27, Heather Stewart, “Johnsonism wins budget battle but will Sunakism win the war?”, in The Guardian:

(UK politics) The political philosophy associated with Rishi Sunak (born 1980), British Conservative politician and Prime Minister from 2022 to 2024.


Sunakite

This is stupid politics from the Sunakites. It is akin to being 4-0 down in a football match in injury time and instead of accepting defeat gracefully going around elbowing opponents in the face and performing leg-breaking tackles.

more Brexitish (comparative)
most Brexitish (superlative)

The Brexitish notion that nation states can just withdraw from the rest of the world and wall in their own production is a cultural fantasy as delusional as any who punch “Australia first!”, “America first!”, “Britain first!” statements into the keypad of a Chinese-assembled mobile phone.

Brexitism

As one who was an economic migrant, who migrated under the opportunities of the EU prior to Brexitism, I thought he'd be sympathetic.

2018, John Kinsella, Russell West-Pavlov, Temporariness: On the Imperatives of Place, page 239:

However, the work of Buck and Meiners (2017) is being threatened by the continuing obsession with segregative nativism in Western society, which has manifested itself in Trumpism and Brexitism (Rowe et al. 2018).
