I'm pretty sure this move was made by the 'anti-environmentalists', including big industry and those fighting the ideological war against 'liberalism'. They would have found a way to discredit it among their followers - if not this way, than another.

Even these terms are from their propaganda, but lots of people repeat them as if they have meaning and represent something real.

I think you've got some homework to do on the etymology of those terms. They were pretty intentionally used here.

Please drop the condescencion.

I didn't say the terms were unintentionally used, I said they were empty stereotypes from conservative propaganda.

Regarding their emptiness: Can you define the terms? Do you have some data to back up the existence of the demographic and their purported behavior?
