I would unironically just keep the insults simple and simply keep calling them stupid over and over.
I want the left to hold the title of the “super rationalist skeptics” the right enjoyed in the mid 2010s. Yes, I understand we will alienate a lot of young men, but I can see this attracting nerdier, smarter young men who feel isolated in society.
I think this is why "weird" got under their skin so much. It's simple, effective and to the point.
It was kind of nice seeing their smug grin wiped off their face and them trying to clumsily play it cool for like a week. Of course, calling republicans weird WoUlD aLiEnAtE tHe WoRkInG cLaSs so it was quickly abandoned.
I think a lot of ground can be gained by being nü-atheists but for the empire instead of religion. Liberals will say "colonialism, imperialism, neo liberalism" this and that, using all the right words, so why are you trying to save that shit by voting for Democrats?
Liberals respond better to smugness than bullying. Just lord it over them and wait a few months to be right about something (as always). To well-meaning libs, don't be mean, just have the "that's ridiculous, fundie, but you'll figure it out, bless your heart" attitude and it'll work itself out.
