Could we maybe not on this website use the term glowie considering it's explicitly sourced from a neo nazi and a phrase involving the n word. seems like maybe not real in line with HN rules....
- mothsonasloth 4y agoIt originated from Terry Davis the creator of TempleOS, but okay I get your point.
- sasattack 4y agoTrue I miss remembered the details. but it has been so amplified by neo nazis that wikitionary sources them as popularizing it .
- user764743 4y ago/pol/ popularized it through him since they were big fans
- orthecreedence 4y agoI thought glowie was a term used to describe undercover FBI/CIA agents. It's in frequent use in leftist (communist/anarchist, not liberal democrat) forums. Is there actual substance behind this claim of its origins or is it yet another tired attempt to rewrite language for no particular reason?
