Cuckservatives?

malibber2 was trying to broaden his horizons the other night by visiting a conservative news website when he came across the term cuckservative. Apparently this is the next big thing in the conservative movement. Oh well, who is malibber2 to quibble with what a group of people wants to call themselves. I was happy to call conservatives Tea Baggers when then wanted to go by that name.
Cuckservatives? First I've evr heard of it so I googled it. Here's the wiki definition.

Definition

One definition of cuckservative is a conservative who sells out,[10] having bought into all of the key premises of the left,[11] and is enthralled with liberal values.[6] According to white supremacist Richard B. Spencer, the president of the National Policy Institute which has been designated as a hate group,[12] the term is a shorthand used to express "a certain kind of contempt for mainstream conservatives".[13] The phrase is similar to "Republican In Name Only" (RINO).[14] Social conservatives who use the term condemn what they see as Republicans running on socially conservative values to appeal to their base during an election cycle, only to use vote trading to compromise on those values while in office.[13] The term cuckold has a long history as an insult implying that a specific man is weak and emasculated, and may even feel pleasure at his own humiliation because of sexual masochism. The term cuckservative similarly implies that certain male Republicans are humiliated through their actions while feeling thrilled and excited from their own degradation because of the abandonment of their own moral standards.[3][15]

Those in the self-described conservative media targeted by the cuckservative slur along with various moderate and left leaning news sites decried the term as an anti-Christian,[4] racist slur[11][16] and a rallying cry for white supremacists and neoreactionaries.[17] Some observers, such as the Southern Poverty Law Center, say that the term's usage has been rising among white supremacists in the United States.[3]

A conservative news site in Spain translated cuckservative to cornuservador, stating that: "Republicans are nothing but the 'controlled opposition' completely in the hands of the political left, whose only aspiration is for those rare occasions when those hands pat them on the head, and the media rewards them with the coveted adjective 'moderate': these are the cornuservadores."[18]

Some American political writers have suggested that the term is racially charged by being seemingly derived from a genre of interracial pornography in which a white married woman spurns her white husband for sex with a black man.[15][19][20][21]

Far right anti-immigrant groups have used the term to condemn white politicians who they say unknowingly promote "the interests of Jews and non-whites".[5] The Anti-Defamation League says that the term is used by white supremacists as a synonym of the pre-existing phrase "race traitors".[5]

The conservative titling committee might want to pick up a copy of the Urban Dictionary

A "cuck" is a term for a man that is aroused by watching his wife have sex with another man. "Tea Bagger" and "Santorum" have their own, unflattering definitions too.

This ain't all that complicated.

A cuckservative is someone who has become unfaithful to his former conservative values and morphed into a [shudder] progressive.

It happens only rarely, and the elevated levels of shit typically found in such individuals has lead scientists to speculate that it may be due to faulty household plumbing, which allows cross-contamination between raw sewage and the drinking water supply.

malibber: Oh, OK. I get it. But then, what do you call a former progressive who suddenly becomes a conservative?

A: A little slow.

So it is the conservative version of slut shaming?
