sometimes I wonder if the cosplaytriot types are even aware that they're Googlebombing.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boogaloo_(funk_dance) has the semantics I had expected for the syntax.

It even made it across the Iron Curtain: https://youtu.be/QSc3uk8Q5w4?t=4881

(1986, so a bit later than 1984's Electric Boogaloo, and a bit earlier than the 1989 end of the wall)

I would assume the hit Ringo Starr song Back Off Boogaloo from 1972, which is one of his most popular non-Beatles singles, might be more likely to be known by the average person.

The alt-right usage etymology is ... convoluted, but dates to a gratuitously terrible film sequel ("Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo", 1984), and came to be a go-to reference for any sequel or return, here, with race war connotations:

Appropriation of language and symbology is quite common among similar movements.

That's funny, I've never heard that on "Classic Rock" stations; guess Top 40's gonna Top.

(incidentally, "Kiss an Angel Good Mornin'" is also from 1972, but there's a lot on the Billboard Top 100 with which I'm unfamiliar. Thanks for giving me a new queue!)

Yikes on appropriation. I had been assuming the "Trump on a Tank" image was obviously parody, both from subject matter and from the black power fist on the tank (on the mudguard just behind the sprocket). Now I wonder if this may actually be a case of "any sufficiently advanced ideology is indistinguishable from satire"?

It's meta that sometimes gets people injured or killed. It's also a sort of natural balancing act.
