So, are the downvotes because these are, or because they are not, exactly what was asked for? And is −3 too much of a hair trigger for the karma fine for replying, or about right?
I didn’t downvote, but on your 3 examples, only the first one qualifies for me, which can justify downvotes (I didn’t because the first one qualifies, making it enough to not be worth a downvote).
“Rethuglican” is not an argument, just a typical pun on words against the ones you don’t like, but it doesn’t pretend to be a reason to not like republicans, just something democrats say between themselves. It’s an happy death spiral, but not a WAitW.
“We are the 99%” doesn’t share much of the WAitW features. It doesn’t try to sneak in connotations, it doesn’t attack an typical example of a cluster by assimilating it with the archetype of the cluster.
