      Outdated definition, now it’s used for people pretending to be something they’re not more generally. Right wingers getting into camo and doing drill pretending to be military. Terminally online left wingers pretending they could punch a nazi or start a revolution.

          Is that a shot at me? I’m pretty sure I can’t be contrarian if my opinion is the vastly more mainstream one. Most people don’t advocate political violence like that. I’m not sure a lefty can be the one calling people crusty, it’s your end of the aisle pioneering that state of being. And I’m not old, sorry.
