I think we find a common theme discussing here.

Projection - self depricating - self loathing - validation seeking

This is pushed in mainstream culture eg teenage loser movies growing up skinny nerds overcoming mean sportsman. Inversion of natural order its pure fantasy. This pummeling of self pride (not woke weird pride again inverting natural order) success, strength, honour etc.

Some are useful idiots for sure spreading this "its just fun terms man!" Others are aware and in hate filled denial. Whichever it should be shunned by the individual as it goes against internal well being.

You can be right, strong, proud, brave and respectful if deserved, caring, self reflecting in a nutshell those who have character and those who do not.
