Meme politics

An American style of shallow political thought, defense, or debate that is based on the use of vague understandings of historical events, actions taken by branches of government, or other sources of quasi-valid information, of which are often used in combination with logical fallacies in a disingenuous or desperate manner to try to undermine the thought, defense, or debate strategy of a perceived political opponent in the hope that that opponent will not know the veracity of the information or claim provided, and that the logical fallacy used will distract them from the quality of the information or claim.
She became thoroughly disgusted with the obtuseness of the man's character as she listened to him argue his meme politics to another man in the deli.

Harry Politicing

When someone (usually a liberal) attempts to justify their political position through use of a fictional story, most notibly J.K. Rowling’s “Harry Potter” series.
Betsy: “The teachers at Hogwarts were armed, and yet students still died. Think about that.”
Chad: “Stop your Harry Politicing, you ignorant bitch. It’s a fictional book. You can’t use it to justify your real world politics. God, you’re dense.”

Tantrum Politicizing

When a person lashes out about an issue and when asked if they could define it, they are unable to do so. Their action is therefore tantrum politicizing.
A person posts an article with raging comments, with a tone of throwing a fit.

Question: "What it is it that upsets you so much about the president?"
Statement: "I like a sane president".

Follow up questions: "Can you define what a sane president means to you"?
Answer: crickets....or "go and play some music....don't bother to comment...bye...."

The person is tantrum politicizing.
