Has anyone noticed the cute trick where many DUers have

[NJmaverick]

taken to calling anyone or anything moderate "corporatist"?

[KittyWampus]

1. DLC and corporatist are their equivalents to "poopyhead". Their reactions are juvenile

I am pretty far left when it comes to goals and ideal worlds and get called that.

Maybe I'm "moderate" when it comes to strategy and getting things done.

Whatever.

7. The use of certain terms as pejoratives is a trick they've learned from the right-wingers

I guess if ones purpose is to try to insult/cut the person you're talking to, then it's a good technique. :eyes:

2. I just want to know how they make a living

No one can be "pure" in terms of never dealing with coporations.

The LLC form - limited liability company - has become a lot more popular. I wonder how they will deal with that. :rofl:

4. But if you take a penny from private... Uh... Wait. Who doesn't?

6. When one considers friends and family and 401Ks, mutual funds

and just trying to make a living, there are few that don't profit or count on corporate "tainted" $$$$$

3. Yes, I've noticed. It's gotten kind of weird. I keep expecting Marx

and Lenin to start up a sing along.

5. Thanks for the chuckle. I needed that in the morning.

9. You're welcome! nt

14. I am kind of a Marxist but not like those posing as one.

I am more of a 'everyone should be equal' type of Marxist and am willing to support someone that I think is working toward that, not the I want my pony now type.

8. The average person just isn't very smart.

Like P.T. Barnum is alleged to have said, no one ever went broke undersestimating the intelligence of the American people.

Real thought takes a lot of effort.

15. I thought he said a 'sucker was born every minute.'

why do I feel I am being insulted. :tinfoilhat: :sarcasm:

10. Just more deadender scamming.. I went into

GDP last night on positive OPs but of course there were the usual detractors..and I noticed that they don't care if they're based in reality or not.

With a twist of egomania..it seems anything Obama does good is because of the whiners(like President Obama doesn't have his own core center to make his own decisions-something they never will understand). IOW, they're taking credit.

I really didn't need anymore proof they were delusional.

11. YOU SELLOUT DLC CORPORATIST ARGH BLARGH *foam*

[MerryBlooms]

12. Oh definitely.

Apparently, some of us missed that particular memo.
Grrr ...

[quiet.american]

13. Have I noticed? They seem to consider that to be my rightful screen name.

The irony is, I don't even consider myself a "moderate."
