Vanguard 1998's definitions

A major social problem that arises when an individual sets their romantic expectations and standards too high for decent people, who the individual likes, to be able to achieve. Normally it is fine to have some standards, but when descent people are unable to fulfill those expectations because of the large number of them and or because the expectations require extremely large amounts money and resources, require the individual to be in perfect physical shape that most people are not able to achieve, and or require the individual to be skilled at doing things that most people don’t know how to do that well, then the individual's expectations may be set too high. This is highly unethical to do, because extremely high standards tend to be very unreasonable and can prevent decent people from being able to get into a romantic relationship due to factors far beyond control.
Annabeth: Why is Emma so upset?
Lauren: She was in a relationship with a Johnny, but he dumped her because she supposedly didn't fulfill his expectations. The thing was his expectations were very unreasonable to begin with. He expects his partner to have flat abs, not to talk to other boys at all, and spend most of her time with him.
Annabeth: He sounds very inconsiderate. I am sure she will find someone better than him who knows how to treat their partner with respect. It sounds like Emma is another victim of the High Romantic Standards Dilemma.
Lauren: Agreed.

Political camouflage

1: The unreasonable expectation by mainstream society that supporters of nonmainstream political parties must conform to the goals, expectations, and norms established by the mainstream political parties, the Republicans and Democrats, and accept that those parties’ agendas and priorities are supposedly more important theirs is in order to fit in. This often leads to lack of imagination when dealing with various political issues and designing policies, which can render a lot of policies ineffective.
2: A camo pattern that always has blue and red, sometimes with two or more of the following colors, which are white, grey, and or black. These patterns are used to indicate opposition to the suppression of nonmainstream political parties; as well as indicate you support the nonmainstream political parties, such as the Reform Party, Pirate Party, Libertarian Party, Alliance Party, and Constitution Party.
3: A camouflage pattern that uses certain colors which are used to represent a specific political party. Usually, it is done to show support for a nonmainstream political party.
Sophia: Hey. Earl that is a nice colorful shirt you’re wearing. Where did you get that?
Earl: It is a political camouflage shirt, which is used to show opposition to the political suppression of nonmainstream political parties. I had to custom order this from a special company online that lets you put your own designs on the product.
Sophia: Nice.

Postmortem objectification

A major societal problem where individuals are no longer valued as people after they die and instead are valued by society and the government as property, financial resources, and or objects
An example of postmortem objectification is when grave robbery laws treat deceased people as property instead of people, which can be inferred from language used in the laws and whether the penalty for committing the crime is more similar to that area’s laws about abduction or theft.

generationally consistent political identity

Aka. G.C.P.I. or just generational consistency, When the political beliefs of an individual match their parents, guardians, and or grandparent’s political beliefs. The more generations from the same family who have the same beliefs, the stronger the generational consistency is. If the trend goes on for too long it can become source of privilege for the younger generations may not even take the time to do research in order to formulate their own views on issues and vote responsibly.
Erin: So, who are you voting for tomorrow?

John: I’ll probably vote for whoever the democrat is. I almost always vote democrat; just like my father and my grandparents on my father’s side. I have a generationally consistent political identity.
Erin: You don’t pay attention to who is running in elections and what their stances are do you?
John: No. Not really.

Political prejudice

A type of social bias where an individual develops an intolerance for certain people based on their political ideology and or political identity. This often starts by an individual thinking the political identity and or ideology they have is superior to the others. It tends to be quite prevalent in the U.S. government these days, which helps to facilitate large amounts of bipartisan bickering over whether or not to respond to it and how to respond. As a result, it often impedes their ability to effectively mobilize on various issues. In society, it causes people to commit various types of crimes and disrespect people who hold different views then they do.
Brian does not like Yasmine because she is a supporter of the Libertarian party and he presumes that Republicans have a superior ideology compared to theirs, even though he does not frequently examine their political ideology to see how it has changed over the years. He has a political prejudice.
