The most popular political slur of our time is the term "neocon." Politically engaged people of several ideologies use the term regularly and although they mean different things when they use it, the term is always intended to be an insult, like the terms "neo-Nazi," and "fascist," also favorite slurs of the same ilk using "neocon." I was first called a neocon by known Democratic Socialists upset by my writings in favor of Americas founding principles, Life, individual Liberty and the right to pursue Happiness in a free market society where all things are possible through individual achievement and reward.
Since Democratic Socialists believe in and support Death not Life (abortion), a Greater Communal Good - not Individual Rights and the right to take from achievers via progressive taxation - not the right to live free, earn and retain wealth by the sweat of ones own brow, I took the term neocon as a compliment.

The hate mail I have received from Ron Paul supporters reads just like the hate mail I have always received from Marxists around the globe and across the aisle. Its hate-filled overtly angry foul mouthed and threatening rhetoric that reads like it was written by anti-Semitic skin-heads on crack. I doubt that even Ron Paul would be proud of how his supporters behave

Hmmm I think I should call myself a Mod Con which is kinda like a South Park republican only slightly to the right.
An anti-conservative slur now days...
Yep, but I find that conservative is as conservative does, not as it spouts campaign rhetoric...
Me too!
On many domestic issues there is almost no difference between the people you describe as neo-communists and the ones I describe as “neo-conservatives.” They are both adamantly opposed to private ownership of guns, they are both hard-core supporters of open borders, and both groups are openly hostile to anything remotely resembling a strict constructionist interpretation of the U.S. constitution.
Once I woke up, I moved straight to Paleo-con!
Doubt, not bet... LOL
Only paleocons and neocommies use that term anymore...
Did you dream this definition up yourself?
Where’d you get this one from?
Better a neocon than a neolib.
Yeah, “neocon” is the term used by the left when they’re afraid to say “k*ke”.
And they article has it wrong - the left doesn’t usually use the term “fascist” - it’s usually “facist”.
Rather be a Neo con than a metro sexual....hey that sounds like a country song!
Classic. LOL.
Just don't call yourself that in the UK. LOL
