Fucktard

Fucktard

The neologism that I used was borrowed as is all language.

We inherit a manner-of-speaking, labels which by mutual agreement we decide point to a thing, or an experience, or… As you can imagine any language affords an infinite number of pieces by which to “play” on the game board. Grammar, the rules of the game are also evolved and agreed upon. Poets, those transgressive and rule breaking individuals often invent new terms which sometimes migrate onto the street level, of ordinary use.

Fucktard is a good word, one that functions efficiently, like an arrow shot dead-center into a bullseye. What is meant by Fucktard? The word amalgamates the obscenity connotation of “fuck” used as an epithet, with the suffix “tard” a note of contempt, used to refer to persons (libtard) who are biased for the common good.

What is meant by the neologism? What we mean to mean is a person whose viewpoint, style of speech and intention is of extreme narcissism. The graphic was published yesterday, a depiction of someone falling unconscious while attending a Nov. 7 event at the Oval Office. The contrast between the President of the United States frozen behind the podium as if “nothing, nothing at all unusual here” and the four helpers rendering aid is stark. Dave Pell of NextDraft writes:

This photo from the Oval Office after someone fainted could be the most perfect representation of the Trump era ever recorded. Is there a Nobel Prize for Sociopathy?

    I hate what I’m about to say, but I also feel very strongly that honesty must come before hyperbole. In the video of this event, his royal moronic self did walk over to at least look at the collapsed man while Dr. Oz was attending to him. Trump then got out of the way by standing at his desk while the room was being cleared. This statement does not mitigate his vile and disgusting nature, but a single shot of any of us out of context can show us in a bad light. Just my two cents.

      A more wide context of the image is helpful. Thank you. Everything that I wrote is an apt description of the man.
