Summary
Caitlin and Trent talk with Maureen Kosse, a linguist from Colorado who researches the semiotics of alt-right and far-right discourse. We talk about how everything is cuck—the right-wing cannot get over their insecurities about masculinity, sexual control of women, and people of color, and their visceral horror of people who are different from themselves—and how we’re all paying for it now in the form of a government whose members are involved with and fans of the figureheads of those very online, very gross movements.Resources:Maureen’s paper: https://utppublishing.com/doi/abs/10.1558/genl.21079 Katie & Stephen Miller/Elon Musk: https://yahoo.com/news/breaking-down-claims-stephen-millers-130000331.html Ye Cuck: https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuck_(album) Birth control: https://breitbart.com/tech/2015/12/08/milo-birth-control-makes-people-less-attractive/ Limbaugh: https://rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2015/07/22/trump_was_supposed_to_be_gone_by_now/ Lewis on ‘cuck’: https://dailycaller.com/2015/07/23/whats-behind-the-cuckservative-slur-nsfw/ Yiannopoulos on ‘cuck’: https://breitbart.com/politics/2015/07/28/cuckservative-is-a-gloriously-effective-insult-that-should-not-be-slurred-demonised-or-ridiculed/ 10 Signs You Might Be A Cuck: https://web.archive.org/web/20151220181840/http://www.returnofkings.com/68170/10-signs-you-might-be-a-cuckservative “Racially conscious whites” https://thepoliticalcesspool.org/jamesedwards/the-american-cuckservative/ Kevin DeAnna: https://splcenter.org/resources/hatewatch/emails-reveal-identity-longtime-white-nationalist-propagandist-onetime-conservative-insider/DeAnna & Thiel: https://buzzfeednews.com/article/rosiegray/peter-thiel-donald-trump-white-nationalist-support Don’t Be A Cuck, Zuck: https://breitbart.com/social-justice/2016/05/17/dont-be-cuck-zuckerberg/ Bannon vs. Kushner: https://thedailybeast.com/steve-bannon-calls-jared-kushner-a-cuck-and-globalist-behind-his-back/Cuck Lite Beer ad: https://youtu.be/yHtQtk20aUg?si=Zn3K5u1K2Fo7M6zU Yarvin on electioncucks: https://graymirror.substack.com/p/vae-victisMusk: “Zuck is a cuck” https://forbes.com/sites/maryroeloffs/2023/07/10/musk-hits-below-the-belt-with-latest-zuckerberg-attacks-zuck-is-a-cuck/ Nick Fuentes booted from TPUSA conference: https://msn.com/en-us/news/world/white-nationalist-nick-fuentes-booted-from-tpusa-conference-israel-controls-this-event/ar-BB1ofsDM
