I found it on some post about a guy that another guy didn’t like on Reddit bc he spoke Russian. My friend doesn’t know what a qwar is, nor do I, nor does OP. Is it a typo?
GWAR?

Perhaps 🤔
Urban Dictionary: qwar https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=qwar
All it says is “qwar means qwar”
It also says "pecker smoocher". And because "qwar" sounds awfully close to "queer", my assumption would be it's a homophobic slur and I will avoid using it / judge anyone who does use it harshly.
I will take someone responding with "qwar means qwar" as they know it's a homophobic slur and they're trying to be hateful while dodging the social repercussions of being a bigot.
Suspect you might be looking for meaning where there is none. Looks like standard "let's make an in-joke" stuff to me
Sure, until I read it's a synonym for "pecker smoocher". Difficult for me to explain that one away.
Thanks!!
Weird that speaking Russian makes you gay, according to this guy in the photo
I saw the post you’re talking about too and was curious about this as well.
All because the guy happened to be speaking Russian 🤷♂️
There's several entries for definitions. One is "scandalous asshole". I've never come across this term. And I'm getting the impression that someone who would use the term qwar is in fact themselves a qwar.
It could be a stroke keyboard typo for "twat" (assuming they missing hitting the initial T)
It is likely this. Thanks!
Nope, it's not that. I made the original post. I would know.
Oh??
It means removed but lemmy will remove the word removed, at least in certain subs
can you space it l i k e t h i s ?
One two three four I declare a qwar - let's whoop his ass queer brothers, sisters and other siblings!
