They take it from America's history. Have you heard of the event known as the "Boston Tea Party"? It was a rather "patriotic" event where goods for trade were sabotaged in protest of Great Britain's policies at the time.

Well the point of that is, some people want to solve economic issues by taking the other extreme. Tea party morons think no taxes and no regulation and all government is evil will work. In rightfully combating such absurdities is saying "END THE PRIVATE SECTOR" as if that were remotely possible which it is not.
The Che supporter morons forget that those tactics are nothing more than shifting wealth from people to the party. It does not solve issues of abuse of power. You simply replace one abuser with another. One monopoly for another.
Is the only argument you have calling someone a "moron"? I don't get why people feel the need to resort to general ad-hom when it comes to politics and economic arguments. Your side is not "right", their side is not "wrong". Make an argument without taking that pretense or insulting their intelligence out of hand, and I'll listen.
Good, because I don't like talking to people who think that being called names is the worst thing in the world that can happen to them. I think Christians being murdered by Isis or gays in Iran have a right to bitch. "Moron" does not qualify as murder or oppression.
Now I think "moron" is an apt description of someone who thinks that any tax is bad and government is always bad. I also think "moron" fits anyone who thinks you can rid 7 billion people of the desire of wanting to own things or businesses.
And even with atheists, I will call them morons too if they think on a planet of diverse species that projecting their utopia will work either.
If you are more concerned with being offended than the actual physical violence and oppression of others, then your priorities are way out of whack.
