Do you have any sources handy I could use? Whenever I hear someone say that you can probably hear my eyes rolling from space.

Usually i play really dumb and ask what it means. Usually that's enough, because they often have no idea, because they just heard it somewhere.

Same deal with woke, CRT, Marxist, or whatever thought terminating cliche is the lunatics' flavour of the month.

They use these terms as a means of avoiding thinking about what they're saying - the meaninglessness is the point... and they're too infected with brain worms to realise.

it's been at least a year since I first encountered CRT

it still reads as some cryptic gender reassignment technique to me

Cathode ray tube. It's a type of monitor that's popular among retro games now, but they're hard to find after most people stopped making them

Nah lol you're on your own. I hipfire based on the vibes of who i'm talking to. People in the real world don't care about backing facts up it's far more important to frame your points in a way that's understood, even if the details are a bit off. Those who do won't listen anyway.
