"Globohomo"[edit]

I usually see this style being called "globohomo", short for "globalized homogenization". Examples:

"Globohomo" sounds more like a 4chan slang/buzz term for all things "NWO-ish" than something normal people would call this style. 199.120.30.203 (talk) 19:50, 19 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You are not deciding who is normal and who is not, my liberal friend. 91.66.120.160 (talk) 20:33, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There doesn't seem to be any consensus on "Globohomo" as a pejorative term outside of Reddit and meme communities. Wikipedia ought to have higher standards for sources than that. Bsosment (talk) 17:07, 21 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"Globohomo" is most commonly used as a portmanteau of "Global" and "Homosexual" in alt-right communities - the Reddit community linked above seems to be an example of such a community - and is certainly not widely accepted nomenclature for anything, let alone this art style.

I think the etymology is Global Homogeneity, not ‘homosexual’ but it’s definitely possible it is being used to mean that too. Morzenmebs (talk) 15:11, 29 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see enough reliable sourcing to include it. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 00:17, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If we're decided on not having the term in the article, should we add a disclaimer in the source to make sure that "globohomo" isn't added again? I feel like people adding it will be a continuing problem. Marisauna (Talk) 16:45, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The sourcing on this is ridiculous (A subreddit, some guy’s blog, and a KYM page? Come on!) and the intent is quite obviously to distract from the well established right wing conspiracy theory definition of Globohomo. If 4chan posters want to troll people on Wikipedia surely it should be harder than this. 98.128.186.102 (talk) 20:34, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

One thing is the slang, and another is the etymology of the movement. Of course the style has been used in state propaganda promoting globalist anti-values (anti: nation, freedom, family, religion, etc) the objective of the aesthetic is to homogenize society in its abstract flat realm 2806:2F0:3340:2CD3:72EC:2534:6055:7012 (talk) 15:53, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Usage in Government designs[edit]

This art style is now often used (at least in Europe) in official posters and campaigns, such as government material and announcements. I'm a street photographer and came across this in different cities in Europe with regularity; however, as that's Original Research which I understand isn't a good source, maybe someone else knows how to expand the article to reflect this use. (At the moment, the main mention is usage in Big Tech.) Philwiki (talk) 11:39, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
