Yeah, with big derogative connotations from most of the ones using the term. Basically another way to say “bum”, which is explicitly spelled out in some of the other UD entries.

spookex@lemmy.world 1 month agoWhat? UD does get sidetracked a bit l, but NEET is actually an acronym for “Not in Education, Employment, or Training” and it is not just some made-up internet term.

Neet has a “failure a launch” implication - a NEET has a home, a bum might be crashing on a couch

NEET is 100% a made-up internet term.

It was part of the curriculum in my Geography lessons in primary school 15 years ago, in a non-English speaking country, even though it’s an English acronym.

Yep. Well known term in the UK and not derogatory.
