    If the term conflates the policies of a man who threw communists out of helicopters and banned labored unions with the policies of the US democratic party, which is the strongest supporter of labor union in the US, then it is a useless term which, again, was defined by philosophy departments at ivy league schools. It is already meaningless. It’s a useful way for people like you to conflate moderates with jackbooted thugs from 3rd world banana republics. It is an intellectually dishonest way to convey your political opinions: just label everyone who disagrees with you as a “neoliberal”

    I have to assume your here to sow descent in discourse.

      This made me actually LOL. That’s an insanely low bar and only true if you are only picking between the two parties that share power.

      Ableism is fascism. Also, that’s a fallacious argument at its core and your own standards dictate that is not okay.

      Also you, 1 comment above:

      It IS a personal attack, because you’re not attacking my words, you’re attacking the speaker of the word
