What do you mean by "populism", are you in favour of it, and what country do you live in?
Advertisements [?]

Several times on DU I've gotten into arguments on DU about whether or not "populism" was a good thing, and after some acrimony its become apparent that the people I was arguing with were using it to mean something slightly different to what I think it means. I'm vaguely wondering if this might be a UK/US thing.

1: What do you mean by "populism"? Examples are helpful.
2: Are you in favour of it?
3: What country do you come from?

I don't wish to bias my results, so I won't post my answers yet.
