Goy-slop

Goy-ball

I heard “Goymas” in reference to Christmas decorations recently.

I kinda get it since “Goy” is a funny sounding word, but also don’t really like the proliferation of Groyper shit.

    I’m old enough to remember Chad being used as slang by kids in the skater scene as a derogatory for jocks and the more preppy athletic kids, same with Stacy. It definitely had undertones of toxicity and sometimes resentment because it was often a matter of class status as well, but there was a time when it was used more like an ingroup-outgroup signifier by the more rebellious countercultural crowd before it became an incel thing.

      I don’t know what years you are talking about but I remember chad being used by 4chan in the early-mid 2010s. An overlap between 4channers and skater kids is not hard to believe.

      The word “chad” wasn’t commonly used in the public until the 2020s. It used to be a “redpill” term. Before redpill, there was bodybuilding forum and pua.

      Similarly, “slop” may have been used by critics throughout the decades, but it became Miriam-Webster’s word of the year in 2025, because the usage greatly escalated. “Goyslop” is a word that was used in right wing spaces prior to that recent popularity and is entirely unrelated.

      The rise in popularity of the word slop is related to social media producing low effort content, especially related to AI.

      4chan’s usage of the word “goyslop” was derived from a conspiracy theory that a Jewish-Elite-class is reducing the quality of food at grocery stores. In 2023, Kanye West on his hitler-arc, told the paparazzi that “they” are trying to make black people fat with twix bars, this is a reference to that conspiracy theory. The term “goyslop” is more related to the “bug eating” conspiracy theory, than it is to the modern usage of slop.

      Also I would like to point out that the drawn chad emojis on hexbear have blonde hair and blue eyes. This is because they were drawn by 4chan to glorify the “nordic” race.

      chad yes-chad

        I would also like to point out that this was the intention and direct result of Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein met with 4chan founder Christopher Poole and the following day Poole launched /pol/, the source of the vast majority of the disgusting racism that plagues the English speaking internet.

        Just about all modern internet culture is downstream of this. It is truly mind boggling how much of an impact that man has had on western society.

        When I was in highschool in the late 90s we used to use “Chad” to refer to the preppy tennis-player and fratboy types. Only we didn’t use it as a noun but more as an actual name. In other words, we wouldn’t say “That guy with his sweater arms tied over his shoulders is a Chad” but we would say “check out Chad over there with his monogrammed money clip.” It was definitely a class thing.

        This is because they were drawn by 4chan to glorify the “nordic” race.

        Sometimes when an anon wants to depict someone as the soyjak, they’ll be drawn with like a hooked nose, or reddish skin, just whatever they want to signal “non-aryan”. The best example I recall is the “I <3 FOLLOWING THE LAW” guy vs the “BILLIONS MUST SEED” guy.

      I’m old enough to remember when repeating a phrase you read on the internet internet would confuse people and, should you explain the word, cause them to think less of you as a person.
