To cassifest

Verb.

Definition: To smash, vandalize or destroy property or living things under the guise of a demonstration or duchifestation, passing acts of destruction off as political or public protest.

Etymology: Crestignacian coinage combining French casser (to break) and manifester (to demonstrate).

Distinction: To duchifest is to demonstrate without destruction. To cassifest is to destroy while pretending to demonstrate. Mere dissent is not cassifestation.

Example: “They claimed to be duchifesting, but instead cassifested a Vulvarium giganticum before it could bloom.”

Forms: cassifest, cassifests, cassifested, cassifesting.

Crestignacian principle: “Duchifest YES! Cassifest NO!”
