Eliminationist:

"Denoting or relating to the belief or policy that a particular group of people should be expelled or eradicated."

I have read/heard eliminationist rhetoric towards liberals from the right... And I'm talking serious "Kill the liberals" rhetoric. I have not heard the same from liberals toward the right.

Has this been your experience?

They are at war with us, and they want to erase us from the discourse... and I think they care less about the means of how to do so as time goes by.

They want to kill all liberals - or libtards, rather. That's one of their pet names for us. It used to be they wanted to ship us out of the country, but after Sarah Palin & her inflammatory speech, they are now comfortable saying they want to kill us.
