Just a quick question for those who are all into politics--why do people use insults like "libtard" or whatever the silly alternative on the other side is? What's the point in looking childish when talking about stuff that's kind of important? They might as well say "u r dum lol" or something, it looks that cringe-worthy, yet I see it all the time. Maybe it's trolls, trying to convince smart people to choose the other side?
