they call us the "Democrat party"
I think every speaker at the RNC was required to use the improper pejorative "Democrat party" when referring to the party but better yet, call us socialists and Marxists. I lost count of how time they said it. They are such gross childish bullies.

1. Childish indeed.

5. Call them the Republicker party.
The party is Republican, therefore the members are......

9. They are manufacturing a derogatory perception a nasty persona,...
... that they want to label us with. Through repetition they hope they can make it stick and make it part off the common lexicon. So when people make mention of Democ-RATS, Socialists, far left terrorists, Marxists, or liberals they use these terms with great disgust and distain. This way they can paint us up as being sub-human and unworthy.

15. but seriously-- at the DNC-- did any Dem resort to such ridiculous name-calling? I watched all of it and didn't see it.

22. I've started calling them RepubliCANTS
As in:
Can't balance a budget
Can't govern
Can't come up with a healthcare plan
Can't win an election without voter suppression
And...
Can't obey the law.
I can think of LOTS more, but you get the point

24. You have to thank Frank Luntz for that one.
Focus Group tested back in the early Nineties. Remember how Newt jumped on that usage,again,thank the Rethug War Room.
:yawn:

Call us whatever the **** you want. We don't give a shit, but it is so entertaining to watch you bedwetters get so spun up every time you hear the term democrat party.

Why do the primitives obsess so much over what we call them?
It's almost as if subconsciously they're seeking our respect.
Fat chance of that.

They constantly promote and support Marxist ideology (they may refer to it as antifa or blm or being ‘woke’ or post-Modernism), but don’t you dare call them Marxists.

This kind of stuff is how they earned the moniker 'snowflakes'.

Couldn't have said it better.
There is a subtle linguistic reason why this has worked out as it has, and differently than for the Republicans, because of the way involving how the name of their party changes when applied to its members. Then that derivative name for the members gets applied back to the party as a whole, and becomes as generally used as the official party name. Watching all their butthurt over it is an endless source of amusement.

To be insulted by the posters on DU is a badge of honor.

:thatsright: :mental:"Democrat Party" is not any more pejorative than when members of that party call themselves "Democrats". :mental: :thatsright: :mental: Will DUpipo ever drop this silly obsession? :mental:

So the people who indulge in things like name calling and petty theft of hats and signs are calling us childish bullies?

Childish? You are the ones that are brought to tears by 2 letters. In reality it is the Democrat Party because no one in the party is democratic and none of you believe in democracy.

I have a suggestion. Check out the Communist Party.

What's wrong with the Demonrattick party now?
-
Is this still going on?
I've been watching the shenanigans at the Dump (with varying levels of interest and attention depending on my real-life commitments) since the happy times of the second Bush presidency, this entire time they've been bitching and moaning about the presence or absence of a single syllable from the name of their party. Thank goodness there aren't any major problems presenting themselves to the country which need to be considered...it's not like a bunch of thugs are burning down city-centres across the country pretending to seek justice is it?

I use communist or fascist party because that is what the democrat party is and communists and fascists are two sides of the same coin.

I was gonna say, I've called them worse things than the "democrat party". :lmao:

It is like Marty Feldman saying "Blucher! Blucher!"
Gets a rise out of them every time.
Quite satisfying.
