It means F*ck Around and Find Out
It's used across the political spectrum, but has its roots in the US far right.
Proth thinks it is an accurate term to describe children being starved to death.

It's not is it? It's a 4Chan/Reddit thing that has become more mainstream. Nothing to do with any political ideology.
