Well here's a start!

Basically lists all the names for emotions that don't actually exist in the English language, as well as some that just sorta got coined in English or something. But if you don't want to use any of these for one literary reason or another, at least you know these things exist.

There's nothing here for "irrational hatred of people with clean, white, two-story houses with well-kept front yards". But thanks anyways, this is actually really useful.

That just sounds like good old class resentment.

Admitting that it's irrational is the first step in outgrowing the Communism fad.

@pugbutter Except that has nothing to do with seizing the means of production or even just flat-out hating the bourgeoisie. It's just me not liking proles that are significantly better off than me, live lives I find unbelievably sterile, and directly support the capitalist system because everything's pretty dandy for them. I don't think many random suburban well-off white people actually own large businesses. Communism isn't just "heh... kid... you've got money... *unsheathes hammer and sickle*" or "We're gonna have single payer healthcare and also mass genocide", it's just the way to get rid of the Capitalist vs. Worker hierarchy that came about during the industrial revolution.

The "heh... kid..." bit is entirely optional.

dialecticly speaking, its the inevitable result of the alt-right fad; the pendulum swings both ways. what happens now is the two clash so that a new paradigm of memes is produced.
