The act of creating online outrage against a made-up word by spamming it with negative connotations so the moderation system determines that the word is a slur. Introduced in a Hacker News thread in July 2025. "someone says something totally innocent, people gang up in the comments to act like a terrible vicious slur has been said, and then the moderation system (with an LLM involved somewhere) "learns" that an arbitrary term is heinous and indirectly bans any discussion of that topic." It’s a reference to the Perry Bible Fellowship comic named "skub"
