Kaczist

Any attestation? google books:"Kaczist", google groups:"Kaczist", “Kaczist”, in OneLook Dictionary Search.. --Dan Polansky (talk) 10:58, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

This may be of interest. Chuck Entz (talk) 02:44, 29 September 2013 (UTC)

Only one possible Google Groups hit. Nothing on Google Books. Given that the only definition is a redlink to the nonexistent term duckist, it's tempting to consider speedying it as "No useful content given", though a halfway-decent definition could be cobbled together from the entry at Kaczism. At any rate, the term apparently relies for its humor on kaczka, a Polish word for duck, and would seem to be meaningless to anyone outside of Poland.

Kaczism claims the following etymology: from Kaczyńsci + ism, after Lech Kaczyński and Jarosław Kaczyński. There may still be the pun to kaczka ("duck"). See also google:Kaczismus (German?) and google:kaczyzm (Polish?). kaczyzm could be attested as a Polish word in google books:kaczyzm, although some of the hits are mentions rather than uses. --Dan Polansky (talk) 09:15, 29 September 2013 (UTC)
