It’s not a word that can, or should be, “reclaimed”.

Dunking on chuds/libs/etc. is awesome, but it doesn’t need that specific framing.

    Depends on school culture, more rural and suburban schools definitely have a very conservative dominant culture typically. Also in Canada hockey players take the role of the athletic kids and hockey tends to have a very reactionary culture compared to other sports

      The point I’ve failed to make here is that this doesn’t register as right-wing to the given community, it registers as normal. I think nigh everybody who would register as right-wing to a rural or suburban school or canadian hockey players is going to get bullied for it because after that dominant culture it’s all just loser shit like talking about phrenology or whatever
