Racist. White Supremacist, Fascist, Nazi, and others. I hear and read this trash talk every day. It is just name calling. It doesn't explain the writer's position, or offer alternative policies, it just slams political opponents. We used to have a policy on the internet, the first one to mention Hitler or Nazis lost the argument. We should bring it back.
Political pundits should concentrate on slamming or advancing policies, rather than doing character assassination on working politicians. Start by giving the policy's name, or bill number, or case name, something so we could recognize it and maybe even Google it for more info or alternate opinions. Describe just what the policy does that is good or bad. Layout a better policy. Explain how the policy is in line with, or dead set against, the basic ideas of America, like the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution. Make a case, for or against a policy.
Understand, that it is far easier for newsies to just name call. You don't have to know anything, research anything, or understand anything to call someone a name. Understand that the newsies who name call do it because they have nothing of interest to contribute to the conversation.
