Randaphobia

Adam Smith's ghost
has written a post
about the globe's
many Randaphobes.

It turns out the term "Randaphobia" goes back at least to 2000, since it shows up with a slightly different spelling in this article.

I must admit I like the term,
But it also makes me squirm.

Mostly because accusing one's opponents of a psychiatric disease, even humorously, borders on ad hominem.

Nonetheless, something about the lady does inspire ferocious antagonism from many - there's no question about that.
