It is not name calling because it is limited in its application to a very
narrowly defined class of texts. I refer only to this kind of context:

Person A. X is the truth.

Person B. Persons who assert X is are orthodox.

That is, when instead of responding to the proposition affirmed the
red-baiter responds by categorizing the person making the statement.

I have never once used as an argument for a given proposition, that
it was Marxist.

I have never, once, given as an argument against a given proposition,
that it was non-marxist.

You and Kelly both have consistently lied about the content of my
posts in this respect.
