Noteworthy memes include:
1.) FETAL RIGHTS: Rights of fetal children.
2.) FETAL CHILD: Unborn child has become associated with "kooky pro-lifers" so we need something more subversive. "Fetal" is a term related to the term pro-aborts often use but "child" is a term that humanizes an unborn person hence we splice them to get people who disagree with us to bite the bait. (I've tried this before and it actually works over time)
3.) FEGEISM/FETAL AGEISM: Ageist discrimination against fetal children due to their stage of development. People who deny parental responsibility to fetal children are "fegeists." The term is supposed to be a multi-purpose branding tool. (use emotionally like how some scream "racist" or "sexist")
4.) MURDERING OUR NATION'S CHILDREN: Self-explanatory, use with self-righteous undertones
5.) ANTI-FETAL RIGHTS EXTREMISTS: Adamant pro-choicers
6.) PRENATAL JUSTICE: Legal obtaining of fetal rights.

7.) CONFINED ECONOMY: An economy that is confined to a certain amount of production. Also an economy with a closed market system.

6.) HETERONORMATIVE: The property of human sociobiology being naturally heterosexual.

2.) OUTSOURCING AMERICAN PROSPERITY/MONEY: The effect of the Global Poverty Act to flush $1,000,000,000,000 down the toilet where it will never see America again (point out that this is the last thing we need right now with the economic crisis, use the numbers not the written word "one trillion" for psychological effect)
3.) NATIONAL CLASS INTEREST: The interests of Americans regardless of class to oppose the global poverty act, which will outsource nearly one trillion dollars overseas (stress that this will hurt Americans of all classes)

----------Judicial Activism and Social Justice:
See the associated thread for questions regarding usage:
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=12621914298&ref=ts#/topic.php?uid=12621914298&topic=8868
1.) SOCIAL JUSTICE RHETORIC: Language equating equality of outcome with justice. The entire basis of so-called "social justice" is in fact a set of views believing that the rules should be changed if something is losing. It is not a valid argument, but rather a childish ploy. The point here is to dismiss this out of hand by pointing out that it is rhetoric.
2.) COHERENT IDEOLOGICAL GROUNDING: A view based on a coherent consistent ideology or philosophy based on premises or axioms that do not shift at random to accommodate equal outcome.
3.) RIGGING OUTCOME EQUALITY: Rearranging a legal system such that equal outcome will result regardless of merit.
4.) JUDICIAL ACTIVISM: The tendency of judges to legislate from the bench.
5.) JUST PROCESS/PROCEDURAL JUSTICE: Just legal proceedings that judge people blindly and fairly and are not changed after the fact to achieve a desired outcome.
6.) INCIDENTAL INEQUALITIES: Inequalities that arise as side effects from a just system. The idea here is to reinforce the fact that justice is prior to concern for inequality, and that the occurrence of inequalities of outcome do not necessarily denote an unjust system.
7.) JUDICIAL PREJUDICE: The bias of a judge in favor of a political correctness "protected class" to rig outcome equality that is based on subjective bias rather than objective justice.
8.) SUBJECTIVELY BIASED/SUBJECTIVE BIAS: (in a judicial context) bias in judgment based on emotional appeals and rather than reason.
9.) OBJECTIVE JUSTICE: Justice as it is objectively and correctly defined. The idea being to reunite the concept of objectivity with the concept of justice so as to dispel the view that justice is subjective in nature.
----------Leftist Radicals:
1.) ANARCHIC PERSONALITIES: Individuals who believe that their is no transcendent moral authority or who see ALL authority even abstract authority as tyrannical for it's own sake (note: This doesn't have to be religious authority, it can also be based on objective ethical philosophies as well. This is based on and is the converse of Theodore Adorno's "authoritarian personality" which tried to label all right-wingers as mentally defective. It is recommended users research the "Authoritarian Personality" when using this meme so as to use it in a similar yet opposing context)
2.) RADICALS AND EXTREMISTS: Left-wing radicals (the idea is to link "radical" with "extremist" thereby getting rid of the false distinction drawn by leftists between the two)
----------Moral Values:
See the associated thread for questions regarding usage:
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=12621914298&ref=ts#/topic.php?uid=12621914298&topic=9125
1.) ANARCHIC/LIBERTINE PERSONALITIES*: Individuals who believe that their is no transcendent moral authority or who see ALL authority, even abstract authority, as tyrannical for it's own sake (note: This doesn't have to be religious authority, it can also be based on objective ethical philosophies as well.)

3.) MINDLESS PERMISSIVENESS: The permitting of any sort of behavior without any question as to the morality of said behavior.
4.) NORMATIVE IMPAIRMENT: The inability to make objective moral judgments of others actions of any kind. The idea is that people who are normatively impaired are "defective" in the sense that they are not able to make moral judgments in a way similar to how a blind person can not see or a deaf person can not hear.
5.) SIMPLISTIC/MINDLESS PERSPECTIVISM/RELATIVISM: The simplistic reduction of all of ethics to relativism, which lacks any serious intellectual attempt to find an objective basis for morality. The idea here is to flip the common conception of relativism as being the more nuanced intellectual view on it's head. The argument behind this is similar to Alan Bloom's argument in Closing of the American Mind -that if all is relative then we don't have to bother to think about anything because all is true and false at the same time.
6.) MORAL ANOMIE: A state of moral normlessness in society upon which one can no longer distinguish between proper and deviant behavior. This term can be modified into a number of terms to deal with a variety of issues (ie Sexual Anomie, Narcotic Anomie, Marital Anomie etc. etc.).
7.) MORAL CLARITY**: The ability to see universal principles and make objective moral judgments based on self-evident moral truths.
8.) OBJECTIVE MORAL JUDGMENTS: Moral judgments of others behavior based on self-evident moral truths. The idea here is to conflate objectivity with moral judgment so as to eliminate the politically correct stigma against judging others behavior and instead describing it as something that is intelligent or positive.
9.) SELF-EVIDENT (MORAL) TRUTHS**: A priori truths about morality that form an objective basis for natural law and are the basis for making objective moral judgments.
*Appears in the Leftist Radicals section as well.
** Appears in the Natural Rights section as well.

See the associated thread for questions regarding usage: http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=12621914298&topic=8438

2.)NATURAL RIGHTS: Inalienable rights based on natural law.
3.) SOCIAL FABRICATIONS/SOCIALLY FABRICATED: Synthesized through arbitrary " social consensus" rather than derived from universal principles.
4.) MORAL NIHILISTS/VALUES DENIERS: people who do not believe in natural law.
5.)MORAL CLARITY: The ability to see universal principles.
6.)NATURAL LAW: The universal principles of transcendent human values from which natural rights are derived.
7.)TRANSCENDENT HUMAN VALUES: Self-evident moral truths based on universal principles. (we want to draw a wedge between the humanistic form of relativism here and objective notions of what it means for a human to be good)
8.) UNIVERSAL PRINCIPLES: Self-evident truths from which transcendent human values are derived.
9.)SELF-EVIDENT (MORAL) TRUTHS: A priori truths about morality that form an objective basis for natural law.
10.) MORAL DEGENERATES: People who do not believe that a natural law or natural rights exist in any form.

2.) ANTI-FAITH BIGOTRY: Attitudes of ACLU etc. when attempting to remove all cultural aspects of religion (vociferous anti-theist attitudes)

2.) EDUCATIONAL CHOICE: The opportunity provided by vouchers to enter a school of ones choice.

2. "Hey Momma, I Said No'Bama!"
3. "I'm Pro-Choice - for School, to Smoke, to Own a SUV, to Use Edison's Lightbulb, to Drill for Oil!"
4. "Blood is cheaper than oil." (Only if you want to tick them off. :) Not to be taken seriously)
5. "We can't all be idiots, some of us have to be Conservatives."
6. "Vouchers: It's about bringing school choice to everyone, not just the few who can afford to pay for it twice."
7. "Bailouts: It's a snake trying to eat it's own tail. Eventually it runs out of tail."
8."You Baracked the wrong vote."

3.) RIGGING OUTCOME EQUALITY: Rearranging a legal system such that equal outcome will result regardless of merit.
4.) JUDICIAL ACTIVISM: The tendency of judges to legislate from the bench.
5.) JUST PROCESS/PROCEDURAL JUSTICE: Just legal proceedings that judge people blindly and fairly and are not changed after the fact to achieve a desired outcome.
6.) INCIDENTAL INEQUALITIES: Inequalities that arise as side effects from a just system. The idea here is to reinforce the fact that justice is prior to concern for inequality, and that the occurrence of inequalities of outcome do not necessarily denote an unjust system.
7.) JUDICIAL PREJUDICE: The bias of a judge in favor of a political correctness "protected class" to rig outcome equality that is based on subjective bias rather than objective justice.
8.) SUBJECTIVELY BIASED/SUBJECTIVE BIAS: (in a judicial context) bias in judgment based on emotional appeals and rather than reason.
9.) OBJECTIVE JUSTICE: Justice as it is objectively and correctly defined. The idea being to reunite the concept of objectivity with the concept of justice so as to dispel the view that justice is subjective in nature.
----------Leftist Radicals:
1.) ANARCHIC PERSONALITIES: Individuals who believe that their is no transcendent moral authority or who see ALL authority even abstract authority as tyrannical for it's own sake (note: This doesn't have to be religious authority, it can also be based on objective ethical philosophies as well. This is based on and is the converse of Theodore Adorno's "authoritarian personality" which tried to label all right-wingers as mentally defective. It is recommended users research the "Authoritarian Personality" when using this meme so as to use it in a similar yet opposing context)
2.) RADICALS AND EXTREMISTS: Left-wing radicals (the idea is to link "radical" with "extremist" thereby getting rid of the false distinction drawn by leftists between the two)
----------Moral Values:

1.) ANARCHIC/LIBERTINE PERSONALITIES*: Individuals who believe that their is no transcendent moral authority or who see ALL authority, even abstract authority, as tyrannical for it's own sake (note: This doesn't have to be religious authority, it can also be based on objective ethical philosophies as well.)
2.) MORAL DEGENERATES/MORALLY DEGENERATE**: People who do not believe in a natural moral law of any kind.
3.) MINDLESS PERMISSIVENESS: The permitting of any sort of behavior without any question as to the morality of said behavior.
4.) NORMATIVE IMPAIRMENT: The inability to make objective moral judgments of others actions of any kind. The idea is that people who are normatively impaired are "defective" in the sense that they are not able to make moral judgments in a way similar to how a blind person can not see or a deaf person can not hear.
5.) SIMPLISTIC/MINDLESS PERSPECTIVISM/RELATIVISM: The simplistic reduction of all of ethics to relativism, which lacks any serious intellectual attempt to find an objective basis for morality. The idea here is to flip the common conception of relativism as being the more nuanced intellectual view on it's head. The argument behind this is similar to Alan Bloom's argument in Closing of the American Mind -that if all is relative then we don't have to bother to think about anything because all is true and false at the same time.
6.) MORAL ANOMIE: A state of moral normlessness in society upon which one can no longer distinguish between proper and deviant behavior. This term can be modified into a number of terms to deal with a variety of issues (ie Sexual Anomie, Narcotic Anomie, Marital Anomie etc. etc.).
7.) MORAL CLARITY**: The ability to see universal principles and make objective moral judgments based on self-evident moral truths.
8.) OBJECTIVE MORAL JUDGMENTS: Moral judgments of others behavior based on self-evident moral truths. The idea here is to conflate objectivity with moral judgment so as to eliminate the politically correct stigma against judging others behavior and instead describing it as something that is intelligent or positive.
9.) SELF-EVIDENT (MORAL) TRUTHS**: A priori truths about morality that form an objective basis for natural law and are the basis for making objective moral judgments.

5.)MORAL CLARITY: The ability to see universal principles.
6.)NATURAL LAW: The universal principles of transcendent human values from which natural rights are derived.
7.)TRANSCENDENT HUMAN VALUES: Self-evident moral truths based on universal principles. (we want to draw a wedge between the humanistic form of relativism here and objective notions of what it means for a human to be good)
8.) UNIVERSAL PRINCIPLES: Self-evident truths from which transcendent human values are derived.
9.)SELF-EVIDENT (MORAL) TRUTHS: A priori truths about morality that form an objective basis for natural law.
