Charlie McHenry<p>I learned a new, Japanese word today thanks to a Reddit comment. A single word that sums up the current <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/AmericanGovernment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AmericanGovernment</span></a>. Chuuni (中二, short for "chuunibyou," 中二病) is a Japanese slang term that translates to "middle school second-year syndrome" or "eighth-grader syndrome." Chuuni refers to a phase that some adolescents go through, typically around the age of 13 or 14, where they exhibit behavior such as having delusions of grandeur, seeking attention, or acting as if they possess special abilities or knowledge that others don't have.</p><p>The term is often used in the context of anime and manga culture to describe characters who exhibit these traits, including pretending to have magical powers, embracing dark or mysterious personas, or generally acting in an exaggerated or overly dramatic manner. Chuuni characters can be seen as endearing or annoying, depending on the context and the viewer's perspective. <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/coup" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>coup</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/AmericanCoup" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AmericanCoup</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>politics</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/Chuuni" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Chuuni</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/GOP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GOP</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/Republicans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Republicans</span></a></p>

Charlie McHenry<p>2/ 🧵What is needed in these times is more <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/Radicals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Radicals</span></a> - As the late Saul Alinsky said: “The Radical believes that all peoples should have a high standard of food, housing, and health … The Radical places human rights far above property rights. He is for universal, free public education and recognizes this as fundamental to the democratic way of life … The Radical believes completely in real equality of opportunity for all peoples regardless of race, color, or creed. He insists on full employment for economic security but is just as insistent that man's work should not only provide economic security but also be such as to satisfy the creative desires within all men.” For those looking to begin their resistance, this book is a great place to start 💯. <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/resistance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resistance</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>politics</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/organizing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>organizing</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>books</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/coup" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>coup</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/AmericanCoup" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AmericanCoup</span></a></p>
