Term that originiated in the Red Scares of the 1950s. If someone were accused of being a communist sympathizer, they were referred to as a "pinko". This originiated when Nixon was running against Ex Officio Senator Douglas for the positionm of California. He accused her of wearing pink underwear, implying that she sympathized with communist parties. Nixon won the election by a landslide.

A semi-Communist; an ultra-liberal. People who may or may not support Anarchy. Usually hates the Republican Party and Conservatives, and typically despises George W. Bush (or George Bush).
Most Pinkos support Communism or Anarchy. They love to bash and hate anyone who isn't liberal or doesn't agree with their radical ideas.

A person that holds no traditional American values. While not being a devout card carrying communist, but more Marxist or Socialist leaning. Therefore that’s the reason for the Pinko name. Red is traditionally the colors of communism and pink is a lighter shade of red. Hence the pinko commie name.
Hey Lenny, what’s going on over at the student Union tonight? I heard the pinko commies were having a protest outside the campus, Because of the university police department cracking down on the BLM militant groups on campus.
