I have been called a feminist, elitist libtard.

[Kath2]

If opposing Trumps's racist, sexist, criminal and misogynistic policies make me a feminist, elitist libtard, then that is a title I will wear with pride.

Yes, I am educated. Yes, I am a lawyer. Yes, I am against racism. Yes I support gay rights. Yes, I am pro-choice. Yes I am pro-immigrant. And yes, I am against endless wars. If that qualifies me to be a true feminist, elitist libtard, so be it.

I would rather that than be classified as a racist, sexist, homophobic Trump supporter. I believe Trump supporters are either very badly informed, narrow-minded or misguided, And that is giving them the benefit of the doubt.

1. OK.... but....

you were called that by really stupid people. Clearly it was not Elizabeth Warren.

[Kath2]

2. No.

Liz is cool with me.

[Aristus]

3. Well said...

[Kath2]

4. Thank you.

Had to get that off my chest. I have way to many pro-Trumpers around here who drive me nuts.

[Wounded Bear]

5. Did you thank them when they said that?

[Kath2]

7. Of course.

Puts me in good company, I believe.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

6. Wear it as a badge of honor.

[Kath2]

8. I do.

Always.

[padfun]

9. Embrace it. Say it with Pride.

Why Yes, yes I am!

[Kath2]

10. I do.

Thank you.

[democratisphere]

11. You are every rethuglicon's nightmare.

CONGRATULATIONS!

[Kath2]

16. Thank you.

I hope I can live up to that!

12. "Libtard" is a word used by people who, deep down inside, know they aren't very smart.

So they over-compensate by bullying like a 9 year old.

Thanks for sometimes engaging with these people. They just make me want to

[Tipperary]

13. I have never heard the word "libtard" spoken.

I only ever see it here, oddly.

15. Go to the "Comments" section of any ...

... rural or red state on-line news article about a political issue. It’s in every third post.

[Kath2]

17. True.

It is seen often and heard occasionally.

[ProfessorGAC]

18. I've Heard It At Work

Amongst the professional ranks. Retired now, so won't be hearing it again.

[JI7]

19. it's all over the place where right wingers are attacking anyone who isn't a racist piece of shit

like them.

[TwilightZone]

20. Spend some time on social media.

Specifically, the comments sections of news stories on sites like the NYT. They're loaded with doofuses who think it's the height of debate.

14. I don't think you're elitist!

[Lady Freedom Returns]

21. Yup.

I find it funny when they try to call me an elitist.

Yes, I did go to college, but....
I'm now disabled, no work, will be on the street (if something doesn't happen soon), I am no way an elitist.
But, to them, if you are Democrat, you are an elitist.

[Kath2]

22. So true.

If you simply support progressive issues or causes you must be an elitist.
