解答
意味：この単語は、2016年の米国共和党党大会のころから流行したもので、主に白人至上主義者(本来はwhite supremacistと呼ばれていたが、最近ではalt-rightという呼び方もある)の間で使われている。意味は、いくつかの定義があるようだけれど、Urban Dictionaryの下記の定義が妥当ではないかと思う。
白人至上主義に忠実ではない白人を軽蔑するための言葉
Answer
It's kind of hard to pin down the exact meaning of this word, but I find the following definition from the Urban Dictionary to be reasonable and better than most:A racial slur for a white person that is not loyal to White Supremacy.
Examples
- Newt Knight was known in Mississippi for being a cuck after he aided runaway slaves in the swamp during the Civil War.
- Jeb is a cuck!
- Did you read that columnists article about X? He's such a cuck.
- He supports equal rights for women? He's a Cuck
- Peter is a really good husband and father who treats women like human beings. What a cuck!
Your definition is spot on. The term is derived from the old English "cuckold", which means "husband of an adulterous wife".... and who may therefore, be parenting offspring that are not genetically his own, either unwittingly or with full knowledge. It's roots extend back to the medieval period, and alludes to the cuckoo bird who sometimes lays eggs in another bird's nest. It is one of the current buzz words of the white nationalist movement used to denigrate those they believe are only pseudo - white nationalist or not firmly committed. It carries a connotation of "effeminate" or, less than a stalwart, masculine, authoritative man of the movement.
