Normally putting something in quotes is a kind of mockery, quotes in that sense means "so called".

For example, what a great "school" that is, they didn't even provide pencils.

Well Beanz didn't want to be linked to Antifa but considers himself Antifascist and has regaled us with his history of marching and fighting and the like. And so while taking Beanz at his word that he's NOT a member of Antifa, but considers himself and Antifascist I used the appropriate term "fellow traveler" and it's in quotations because of https://www.grammarbook.com/punctuation/quotes.asp Rule 8a. Quotation marks are often used with technical terms, terms used in an unusual way, or other expressions that vary from standard usage.

Examples:
It's an oil-extraction method known as "fracking."
He did some "experimenting" in his college days.
I had a visit from my "friend" the tax man.


As for the term itself. Fellow Traveler: The term fellow traveler identifies a person who is intellectually sympathetic to the ideology of a political organization, and who co-operates in the organization's politics, without being a formal member of that organization.


It was in NO way related to his claim of Gypsy heritage or the like. Why he would immediately assume so is one of the many reasons I don't get along with him and frankly don't care to, but I'm not the one doing the insulting here that's a one way street at present and he's taking full advantage.

not trying to be difficult here but I did immediately think of his traveler ancestry when I read that but that's just me. I totally believe you that you meant it in the way you described, simply as a reference to a technical term.

Beanz's family and his lineages aren't the subject of my posts and I'm not greatly interested in making them the subjects of my posts in this thread. Why he would jump to such a conclusion so immediately is only his to know and explain.
