Comrades, we all know about microaggressions. These nefarious, seemingly innocent behaviors and words are all part of a grand right-wing effort to destroy the progressive utopia. In fact, we even know such things can be done unwittingly, which in turn requires a struggle session to identify and work through.
But the nanoaggression? Oh, this is a heroic new form of oppression just recently discovered by the Leon Trotsky Institute for Social Progress and Ice Pick Research.
A nanoaggression is such a subtle form of discrimination, harassment, and privilege that it is all but impossible to observe, yet easy to experience. The cumulative effects of nanoaggressions will eventually wear out a victimized individual due to their nefarious and difficult to identify presence.
We might ask then, what are examples of nanoaggressions?
Well the correct answer is, if you have to ask, you are an oppressor. If you are not a member of a victimized class of people, then you literally shed nanoaggressions the way a cat might shed hair in the summertime, and like that hair, it is an irritant that destroys the quality of life of those around you.
Remember, do not ask what a nanoaggression is, simply accept the fact you radiate them at all times, and take steps to reduce their transmission. And of course, if you have to ask how to do that, then well, that's also oppressive.
