I think that's probably not a bad idea.

When the left finds a term like woke or SJW, the right turns it into a pejorative. Or they choose a term like groomer and misapply it.

Taking a page out of their playbook and misusing and overusing the term might not be a bad idea. It takes the power of the word away from them.

That and we should never just refer to them as "the right" or "conservatives". Do what they do and add some adjectives in front.

DON'T: The alt-right, right wing, conservatives, Christians

DO: groomer christians, snowflake republicans, the psychotic right wing,

They never say left wing it's always radical left wing. In turn I say we embrace it like some let's go Brandon shit.

The real Radical left wing:

I forgot to use "regressives" but I like "psychotic right wing". How about: rabid right wing?
