IOKIYAR
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
IOKIYAR is an acronym standing for It's OK If You're A Republican. This has become a shorthand way for some US liberals -- especially liberal bloggers -- to express what they perceive as a double standard in criticism or media treatment of Republican or conservative misdeeds. The abbreviation has become a neologism, pronounced /ijoʊkeɪɑɹ/ (IPA) (The inverse is INOKIYAD -- It's Not OK If You're a Democrat, although it is rarely used.)
