My preference is for the language on both extreme ends to be used less. I don't think it's productive and just resorts to name-calling vs discussing the actual issues.

Extreme right, maga, redneck. None of those are helpful either.

Socialism I think is OK to use, as long as it is used in the proper context. Socialism is akin to maybe a capitalist on the other side??

All these made up words to grab headlines and instill fear drive me crazy, then they catch on and it becomes normal to use them.
