but i'm talking about ones used to end the conversation...the meme is that there is no response
after a crisis you'll get it with the patriot-like words, but that's a specialized scenario
job creator is a generic word, and wehn it references private parties is for those on the "right", but it won't shut down a conversation
using a term like "right wing" now is used to completely discredit the person where a response is beneath us all. liberals on here won't even call themselves liberals, to shut down any conversation on their policy beliefs

facts
liberals love promoting how much they use facts
facts that go against their point? will be from a biased source somehow

a liberal using the term "right-wing" to discredit a conservative is like a conservative using "far left"
or using the term socialism when it doesn't apply. Many of the low information conservative voters don't even know what socialism means.

And why cant you buy her for what she's worth?

Two-part question:
(1) What's the right-wing (conservative) equivalent of terms like Islamophobia, homophobia, racist, etc. Certainly these terms are used ALL THE TIME to marginalize conservatives, even when conservatives dont say anything to warrant such descriptions?
(2) Even if there are, generally speaking, conservative equivalents to the terms I mentioned above, what about the frequency of usage of said terms?
Oh, I'll throw in one more:
(3) Is there a Saul Alinsky of the Right, who encouraged conservatives to shut down discussions by simply using "magic words" in order to avoid any actual discussion?
I'll be interested to see the responses, if there even are any.

i'm not denying that, but only liberals get to use buzzwords to shut down the entire conversation
like i said...liberals on this very board won't even respond to generic questions about being liberal, b/c they deny the use of the term
and the right has no buzzwords like racist. nothing shuts down a discussion faster than being scared of being called a racist

I mean, yeaaaaa I get what you're saying
but, to me, the people who do that are just dumb
to me, they are the vegan Snow lady. I dont think about them when I think of someone being a liberal
maybe my friends who identify as liberal really aren't liberal

I'm not a liberal, I can't speak for them

that's fair
the problem is, and to bring this all back, using terms like "right wing" do not allow those on the other side to have that nuance
a "right wing" designation destroys your credibility
it's an effective marketing/psychology thing (aided by the media), but it's bullshite. i just try to call it out when i see it

ad hominems have no place in discussions regardless of the side
it's what gets annoying about this board
someone posts link about something Obama says
first 5 responses:
derrr ODUMMY STRIKES AGAIN, GOLFER IN CHIEF JUST NEEDS TO LOWER HIS HANDICAP
i mean, doesn't that get annoying?
