commie
A derogatory term for a communist or a person with communist beliefs.
[C] Countable
pl: commies
This term carries a heavy political charge and is almost exclusively used as a slur or a mocking label. It strips the political ideology of its formal status, reducing a complex belief system to a derogatory shorthand intended to alienate or dehumanize the subject.
Usage is typically associated with Cold War rhetoric or right-wing political discourse. It evokes an image of suspicion, betrayal, and anti-establishment fear, making it unsuitable for neutral academic or professional discussions about political science.
Used to count individual people who are being labeled with the slur.
