Favorite shitlib insults

Go!

A shitlib is sort of like today's equivalent of the DLC. Shitlibs tar the name of a political faction while not even supporting the values that said faction is supposed to stand for. The term is often used by real progressives to denote establishment "liberals" who toe the party line of sources like MSNBC (which is now full of right-wing Republicans from the Bush era).

But what are some of the favorite insults lobbed by shitlibs?

One of the most common is "anti-vaxxer", which they apply to people who aren't actually anti-vaxxers. Make no mistake, there are real anti-vaxxers out there. But shitlibs call people "anti-vaxxers" even when they write something that explicitly supports vaccinations. Shitlibs are the real anti-vaxxers. They deny natural immunity even exists – while vaccines are based on some of the same ideas as natural immunity.

Another shitlib insult is "dirtbag leftist." Though they intend this phrase as an insult, it's been turned around by those on the receiving end of it to be a compliment.

My favorite shitlib insult lately is "class reductionist." Shitlibs deny that classism and credentialism are even real. They think it's just a hoax. So anybody who points out a real instance of classism or expresses class consciousness is attacked as a "class reductionist."

Another favorite of mine is their tendency to call opponents "right-wing Trump supporters" – even though shitlibs were often Republicans until very recently.
