Don't forget Empty G spoke at neo nazi Nick Fuentes' conference this year. She needs to be lit up.

Put this fucking piece of dog shit on the back foot. Attack attack attack....

1. Doesn't "lit up" mean "shot" in some circles?

If so, it might be the wrong metaphor to use here.

[Celerity]

2. Lit up as in verbally hammered, exposed. But you knew that.

[Mister Ed]

3. Yes, of course I knew your meaning is honorable.

It still seems an unfortunate term to express those honorable intentions. It's all too easily misunderstood.

We live an age of right-wing stochastic terrorism. I personally think we should avoid using the same buzz terms that right-wingers like MTG use to encourage violence.

4. Noboby I know means shot when they use lit (up). It either means effectively attacked verbally and

exposed, or (if just lit, not lit up) means someing is fire, hot, great.

5. I did not know this. I did know you meant to disparage the piece of garbage in the photo.

And I agree.

6. Fair enough

[Polybius]

13. Urban Dictionary shows all of the meanings for the slang

You were mostly right. It started as an army term.

8. I wasn't aware of that implication - I've always interpreted "lit up" as meaning

someone's comments should be subject to a metaphoric bright light and appropriately criticized. Never thought it carried a suggestion of violence at all. Though these days I guess almost everything does...

[Mister Ed]

9. Military parlance, I think.

Combatants speak of having "lit up" the enemy.

I do regret mentioning it, though, as it seems I've kindled a side-discussion that somewhat obscures the OP, and hijacking the thread was definitely not my intention.

[Lochloosa]

12. As a Southerner, lit up also refers to getting shot.

But I understood the OPs reference.

7. Nothing says White Supremacy like a Fuentes surname.

[BannonsLiver]

10. Somehow I don't think being taken to task for hanging out with a white supremacist

Wounds MTG the way we would like it to, or should.

11. Wel. look at how Trump's team is all defensive about it. I wager you could drive a split by

repeatedly contronting MTG over it, force her to defend it, then go after her and Trump's relationship by saying to her, 'why is your boy Trump all backing away from the nazi, you and Trump are not even on the same page, so which one of you two is the right one?'
