I don’t use “wingnut” as name-calling, but as a descriptor to differentiate right-wing nutjobs from conservatives as a courtesy to the few remaining sane conservatives.

When you’re talking about dangerous, often heavily-armed people who are completely disconnected from reality, it doesn’t get much kinder than “nut.”

Of course the wingnuts would claim that Liberals are actually retarded, so that their childish name-calling makes sense too, but it’s pretty clear that it’s actually the wingnuts that suffer from cognitive deficits.

A big difference, demonstrating a lack of symmetry in the situation is the fact that liberals can point to the constant very public stream of insanity from the right, and the right-wingers only derp out whatever wingnut media told them that liberals are like, rather than anything from non-imaginary liberals.
