Because a lot of people aren't super religious so that would drive them off, and because that doesn't really specify what they are and what they do.

The first step to defeating an enemy is to understand how they operate.

"Zionists" tells you nothing - it tells YOU things because you have things associated with that word, but "Zionist" isn't an action, it's a state of being. And one many people won't think of the same things you do.

Same with "satan's minnions".

But Statist or Globalist? While people might not know EXACTLY what you're going for, they can pick it up very quickly. Globalist obviously implies someone thinking of some kind of global system of infrastructure/government/society, and likewise, statist implies someone who worships/has a strong preference for the state and state powers.

Neither have religious connotations, extremist connotations, can be tied to attacks on people groups (like Jews), and so on that turn off the normies or have people recoil away from you.

.

I really think you understand what I'm saying, but if you did not, this explanation should make it clear.

I'm not one to mince words - I see statist/globalist as one of the ultimate insults you could call a person - but I make my insults match the actions of the people, describe them, and not be of a sort that people I'm trying to convince to join me recoil from me instead.

As far as I'm concerned, people in the patriot movement that insist on using the term "Zionists" (even after being told all this) are subversive agents trying to discredit the movement and cause people to turn away from it or recoil from it from the very start.
