      Is there a term for this kind of “our brave soldiers, their barbaric hordes” terminology? Because I’m increasingly feeling like most liberal politics can be boiled down to it

          Yeah, but it’s a specific form of chauvinism

            it seems very difficult to encapsulate in a single term, so maybe simply “liberal chauvinism”? It is a typical shitlib mentality after all.

        If there’s no term for it, I’m gonna call it Blairspeak, named after Eric Blair.
