There is a rhetorical war by the GOP which is to misuse Democrat as an adjective instead of Democratic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democrat_Party_(epithet) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democrat_Party_(epithet) When I see someone misuse the word, I cannot know if it was a harmless mistake, or whether they are intentionally engaging in the war, but I assume it was a harmless mistake. At no point have I accused anyone in this thread of malfeasance. I have not attempted to shame anyone. I simply let jwond know that they had used the wrong word, and as a courtesy, I let them know of the on-going rhetorical war. Again, if I misused a word, I'd want to know. If my misuse was often used as insult (even if by others but not by me), I'd especially want to know. This is no longer a productive conversation, so this is my final reply.
