Should mention how the word 'liberal' has become demonizing. Also, why should this article only be about liberal demonizers? I have heard many a conservative demonizers like "tree-hugger" and "evolutionist" (it and the word 'creationist' have too many mean spirited implications when applied to a person).--Snotbowst 19:35, 15 May 2008 (EDT)

Who's talking about whom?
We need to indicate which group is "demonizing" what other group? Who's doing the labeling? Better still, give their reasoning.
And what about words like hippie which were self-applied? --Ed Poor Talk 15:58, 21 April 2009 (EDT)
