No, I don't think so. I just find terms like that to be signs of
lazy thinking. A cute label gets put on a group by a clever radio
commentator or columnist, and I can get some pleasure from that, but
then the term get picked up and parroted and used as a shorthand
or bonding term among people to cement their ideology amongst
themselves.
It happens on all ends of the political spectrum.
