FMW

Free Market Warrior. An FMW sticks to a dogma and blind ideology to support free market capitalism. In the face of evidence that highlights the social, economic, and cultural inequalities that come from free market capitalism, should an FMW accept their existence, the FMW will insist they are the result of individual failings, taxation, regulation, or some combination of these and not an indication of a systemic failure of free market capitalism itself. An FMW sticks to talking points and engages debate with circular logic and outdated economic theories to support his or her position.

An FMW just basically told me to pick me up by my bootstraps. The literal impossibility of such a task highlights the one dimensional reasoning that goes into their world view.
