Attack of the demotards

Blind righteousness is not a monopoly of conservatives or even right-wing extremists. There are plenty of mostly liberals (with maybe a progressive or two) who are so self-absorbed in their alleged leftiness they not only think they can never do wrong, but they truly believe their shit smells like roses.

Hence, the birth of the demotard [1].

I am not the first to use the term, and I hope I wont be the last either. Yet, I will claim to be the creator of not only it's etymological reference, but of the awards to go with it.


Aren't they special?
