🔘 Leftist
◻️ A person with radical left-wing political views
A leftist is a person who has radical views on the left side of the political spectrum. While great variation exists in Leftism, the main tenant is social equality (often referred to as "socialism"), which is achieved through robust government regulations and high taxation of the rich to help the poor and disadvantaged.
The term comes from "Left" (the left-wing of the political spectrum), which is an idea borne from the French Revolution in the late-1700s. The "Left" and "Right" labels corresponded with where people with liberal or conservative ideas sat in the French Estates General (a legislative assembly).
In modern American politics, the term is primarily used to refer to radical progressives in the Democratic party. It is often interchanged with "liberalism" but is different, being farther on the left side of the spectrum. Some prominent issues important to Leftists include social and economic equality (LGBTQ, feminist, and civil rights movements), environmental conservation, distinct separation of church and state, and anti-nationalism, which some label as Marxist and "Globalism."
Conservatives often use "leftist" to label radical Democrats, such as Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC). You will typically see the term on social media during the election season, in political news articles and blogs, and hear it on 24/7 cable news channels.
❓Example
"Leftists are ruining this country!"
"OK, boomer."

🔘 Speak Truth To Power
◻️Stand up for what is right
To speak truth to power is when one or more people stand up for what is right by resisting an oppressive force, such as a person or company. It has become a rallying cry for people resisting or uncovering corrupt, unfair, and incorrect practices performed by people in positions of power, especially the government.
While some date the phrase back to Ancient Greece, its modern-day roots go back to the early 1940s, when it was popularized by American civil rights activist Bayard Rustin. He advocated for nonviolent methods for battling greater powers to achieve social justice.
"Speak truth to power" has been adopted by various nonviolent resistance groups over the years, including against the Soviet Union during the Cold War and against the Taliban in the Middle East. It gained more exposure in the late-2010s, especially on social media, as a way to encourage dissidents to rebel.
You will probably see it in protests for racial justice, gender equality, LGBTQ rights, censorship, and other issues defying government laws or the "status quo." The phrase is prevalent on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and Snapchat among social activists.
❓Example
"Don't give up. Speak truth to power whenever you can and we will eventually achieve equality."

Ugly hot is a term used to describe a person who, despite some ugly features, is still physically attractive. The term is typically applied to males but may also be used for females.

🔘Tuning
◻️Subtly flirting with a person
Tuning is when a person is trying to get someone to like him in a subtle ways. It often occurs through liking a person's pics on social media, tagging someone in videos, or playful texts.
Tuning is one step below of flirting. It is a method utilized to gauge a person's interest without really putting themselves out there. You could say tuning is "greasing the wheels" of the relationship to move forward. If the tuning goes in the right direction the person would begin to implement more outward flirtations.
❓Example
"He's been tuning the her the past week to see if she has any interest in him."
