Small-Scale Question Sunday for June 4, 2023

Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?

This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Culture war topics are accepted, and proposals for a better intro post are appreciated.

“Degenerate?”

Maybe it’s past the line of self-awareness, because it’s clearly got an actual political history. The rare occasions of unironic use are definitely right-coded.

“Agenda” is mainstream on the right. As is “activists.” I think it’s pretty rare to see those used in the other direction.

Not sure if I really see “elites” used by the left. “Washington” elites even more so.

Elites is used all the time by the left but I think it’s slowly being replaced by “billionaires”.
