Hey GNU social peeps, can I please get all of the Donald Trump supporters to explain what a "cuck" is and where the term comes from

@mrmattimation 'Cuck' is short for 'cuckold', a man with an unfaithful wife - and by extension, someone who supports an 'unfaithful' politician.
Or something like that, I don't really follow/pol/ cherryposting that closely. -
@ii I've seen this word get thrown around a lot by internet conservatives, judging from context my read on it is it's their flavour-of-the-week pejorative for anyone who holds progressive or inclusive beliefs.
-
@narwhal I've also seen it used on the *chans as a general purpose insult. Since 'batcave' and 'autist' are passé these days.
-
@ii I avoid the chans altogether, but it doesn't surprise me that terms like "cuck" are in vogue there.
