…is it weird that I know what rizz is, but I’m only assuming I know what demsoc is based on context?

Probably a play on Orwell’s 1984 “IngSoc” party but with “Dem” instead

“Demsoc” is just a shorthand for “democratic socialist”. Similar to how “ancap” is “anarcho-capitalist” and “nazbol” is “national-bolshevik”.

is Nazgül short for “Republican” or am I getting middle earth slang mixed up with modern?

Demsoc = democratic socialist. They’re the more progressive wing of the American left that’s beginning to take power from the neoliberals.
They basically just want a system like what Europe has instead of our current system of crony capitalism.
Afaik it’s the biggest American political movement that Europe would consider to actually be on the left part of the spectrum.

Omfg I finally understand where it comes from.
Can I get one of these for “drip”?? Or is that already old?
Statick@programming.dev 1 month ago
I think “dripping with money” expressed via the clothes someone is wearing.

What I don’t get is why he’s called a democratic socialist and not a social democrat. You know, the widely used term for parties with his kind of politics around the world.
