I think it's the latest conservative talking point. For example:

"Barbarous Iran is the real Great Satan, but the morally bankrupt Left is incapable of admitting it"

Translation: Uhhh, we need a way to mindlessly defend Trump's decision to try and start WW3. I know, it's the fault of his critics! Throw in lots of adjectives, that'll tell our audience what to think!
Ironic usage of 'Barbarous' considering the origins of the term Barbarians, used to describe and disparage groups of far-flung peoples who one had on real knowledge of or reason to fear, in order to feel superior over them.

Self-awareness has never been a strong suit of the fearful though.
