My lighthearted abbreviation of ‘premod’ conservatives (in contrast to pomocons) has inspired John Schwenkler and Conor Friedersdorf to newly subversive heights:
“prefab” will be the new term of choice for conservatism of the talk radio variety [ . . . .] In honor of Michael Bay’s latest travesty , “prefabricons” is an acceptable usage, too.
John decries regurgitated talking points as “novel and exciting” as a built-by-numbers rest stop. Here’s inviting Conor to dub someone’s approach to politics “intellectual McMansionism.”
