I'm 100% positive they're using it as their new "wink wink aren't we clever" word because it hints at the outdated term "negroid".

(2,817 posts)back to the dehumanizing terminology of the Nazis referring to Jews as vermin, rats, etc.
I do struggle with how best to express how much I despise Trump's base. I'm no saint, I often don't want to go high when they go low. The Lincoln Project understands this and many of us are happy to have them punch below the belt like they did when they were Republicans so maybe we don't have to. To save this country it might take a dirtier fight and I don't know where, when, or how to let go of my hope for our side to take the high road and still beat back the fascism.

(60,320 posts)(to be clear, this is my hypothesis, presented without specific evidence)
It's dehumanizing, like tRumpanzee is dehumanizing, though I have an unfortunate pleasure in using the latter.
They are much more likely to know and connect with Star Wars than the physiognomy and such fads of the late 1800s and early 1900s.

(60,320 posts)... because it is not based on the wording any more than rightoid, so therefore it is an opportunity lost for them every time they use it.
Let the Qonned and the CONservatives and the GQP and the RepubliCON party and the tRumpanzees struggle to try to keep up with left wit. The Mango Mussolini has no wits, just debt.
