failson

A derogative term coined by chapo trap house fans and leftist twitter users, often referring to a young man from a successful family who is currently perceived as a "failure" compared to his predecessor. The use of "failson" is one of the hallmark projections thrown out by insecure numales online, and typically stems from their own failed relationships with their fathers / families. Many leftist internet users have tried to suppress the deep sense of shame they feel stemming from how much they've disappointed their fathers in life. As a result, many can't help but accuse other people, who still have a relationship with their family, as being a failure in the same way they are. The typical "failson" has wealthy parents and a good relationship with his family, which causes a deep, seething jealousy in those who struggle financially and failed to maintain a relationship with their parents. It is an insult used as a way cope with the fact they have no support from their family or their parents. The truth is many "failsons" go on to succeed in life, have families and careers, while the individuals calling people "failsons" post about the benefits of socialism on social media while living in poverty. Calling someone a failson is a way of saying "I wish I had what he had". Not only wanting for the affluence and wealth that comes from having successful parents, but for a deep desire to have a good relationship with mom and dad.
