A term, often used in a derogatory manner, to refer to comments and rebuttals about about the current year and the actual or expected state of being for a society.
The phrase has its origins on 4chan, with
satire of
John William Oliver and his use of the current year as a
straw man argument.
Person A: How am I privileged again? I was born to
a single mother and a dad who ran away never to pay child support, only to graduate high-school as
the recession peaked.
Person B: (Jokingly) You are white and male. You have no argument and should understand this, it's
current year.
