A person committed to the belief that opinions matter as much as facts and that her own ignorance is of equal value to others' expertise. Frequently found in the comments sections of news articles and other online fora.
The opinionistas responding to that article don't seem to have read past the headline.
"Because this is a country founded on opinionism (among other things too), the opinions of stupid people are taken into account. That is what's screwing up this country. It's always opinion VS opinion. Intelligence VS intelligence. Although it's free-will, it spreads like wildfire and there's no controlling it......now that I word it like this, you're probably thinking I'm an anti-American communist. Which is VERY far from the truth, you prejudmental bastard."

An often irritating personality trait by which a stubborn, strong willed person always has to give their strong opinions, sometimes to the point of always believing they have to be right and have the last word.
I consider myself opinionated, but try to keep it under control so I don't irritate people.
v. or adj., to offer opinions unfounded by facts, logic or reason in books/ columns/ talk shows etc. in order to substantiate and legitimize an utterly absurd view point or idea. See also: 'catapulting the propaganda'.

Mike: "Dude, don't listen to that bitch. She's just an opinioneering cunt with as much credibility as a Republican congressman caught pants-down at a boy scout slumber party."
