Leftist shibboleths?

I guess calling it the CPC instead of the CCP could be considered one

"struggle session" apparently. I mentioned that casually at work on a teams call one day when everyone was getting pissy about something small. The whole convo stopped and they wanted to know why I was using that very specific phrase. it was actually an accident that it came out anyway.
maybe you'd not raise an eye if you said "crit{icism} session"
"struggle session" sounds a bit harsh, doncha think?
It was said in jest because it was an argument akin to deciding on the color of drapes and people were getting heated about it. Like super heated.
I am surprised anyone would know and not approve.
DPRK instead of "North Korea" thunderstrike
Not sure if all of these are shibboleths but they're definitely things I've heard leftists say

i have a bad habit of skipping lines when i skim so i only read the 2nd line of your comment and thought it was AI slop
"Material conditions" and "productive forces"
I can feel the hours of reading secondary leftist theoretical works course through my veins.

Critical support? idk, but I've never seen this phrase outside of leftist spaces
Critical support
Quite demure, quite Leninist...
Death to America of course.

Saying "what is to be done?" Is one I've used at times
"Chuds"
Man, I really loved that movie, I tell ye hwat
Is treatlerite one? Cause goddamn it's a banger
Getting the sense that shibboleth doesn't refer to some obscure Cthulhu monster. Seems like i have to look up a new word every day on this website
"Brainworms" I don't ever see anyone outside of the left saying this.
We have a government official that actually has brain worms so maybe not.
I heard the term on /tttt/ long before I heard any leftist using it, so it isn't foolproof
I've heard multiple non-political streamers use this, so I don't think it's more an online term than exclusively leftist (and I don't mean not "political", I mean literally did not know the US presidential election was happening level of grillpilled)
i pronounce it Sibboleth
Infinite 7/11s on the West
Expropriation, exploitation, appropriation... sounds like a Marxist-economic version of delay, deny, defend.
Completely disagree. Delay, Deny, Defend are specifically legal tactics companies use, whiile expropriation, exploitation, and appropriation are, in Marxism, specifically two economic terms based within how one both proves and discusses the contradictions of capitalism, while appropriation is a much more widespread cultural and sociological phenomena, which in part derives from the economic base of capital markets.
Delay, Deny, Defend is a tactic that encompasses both expropriation and exploitation, but it isn't an actual description of the economic metrics occuring and how it relates to labor-value and use-value.
Not disagreeing that the way we use them tends to be a shibboleth.
Narwhal, bacons, midnight
I feel we are entirely too concerned with this sort of thing. Just speak plainly and directly.
