After a lifetime of claiming that being weird is cooler because being normal is boring I may have to give that one up. Being a Trump cultist is NOT what I want people to think of if I say I’m a little weird.
Hah, I too have been called a goober… it was past midnight and I was searching for some kind of term that wasn’t more explicitly crass and offensive.
I am of the opinion that swearing and extremely rude insults are good, but only when used sparring, if you use them all the time, they lose their punch and you just sound like an overly aggressive idiot.
Maybe at some point, someone will come up with a more specific more pointed epithet that truly encapsulates all of the ways these people are irredeemably despicable. I’ve used MAGAtard in the past, but various mods on lemmy consider that ableism.
