They are scare words just as "lynching," "separate but equal," "racial
profiling," are scare words for blacks.

Some American writer (not a marxist) some decades ago proposed the
radical suggestion that people believed things for the reasons they
gave for believing them. He had Freud in mind I believe, but his words
could also apply to those who have hipshot analyses ot "The Left."
