Parts of the alt right does the same with its meme sociolect. You'll see frogs and wojaks and hear of soy and cuck and various pills very quickly.

This is true.

As much as I hate "both sides" discourse[0], it's interesting that I see the same memes in both right and left contexts - I wonder of a creation of a "second language" to discuss divisive politics is enough of a force to spread it, or of it is intentional coopting of another sides language to dilute it.

E: [0] HN is not the place for the rest of my feelings on this. Both sides aren't the same is enough to suffice here.
