17. To be honest, I doubt too many people know what 'communist' means either.

It has become a 'buzzword' to use as an insult, but like the old homosexual slurs, they are more used to be insulting that to exactly insult a gay person. I know when I was growing up that someone using the term 'gay' was trying to insult the other person, usually with no idea what they were saying. (I don't think that wearing Converse over Nike applies as being 'gay', for example, yet I heard a student say that once.)

I prefer 'stupid asshole'. That is what he and his cronies are. Just use that.
