Thank you. Now that I know I’ll refrain from the term.

Actually I never used it. But it has always bothered me when people are so rabidly supportive of ‘their team’ that it can do no wrong in their minds, EVER. I’ve used America-firsters and so thought the x-firster term carried the same connotation.

Guess I’ll have to come up with a different term, one that means what I want it to mean. Be overjoyed if someone can make a good suggestion.

Safest thing is to avoid putting people in a category. Deal with the particular issue with the particular person, and say what your difference with their opinion is. Categories can be handy and easy, and wrong.
