This is like the "let kids be kids" phrase thats being bandied about now. It's like they purposely choose a vague phrase that can be used by either side.

I think that's a good point. Just off the top of my head, it strikes me that many political and activist slogans are like that. Maybe it's because short and pithy are antithetical to clarity or exclusivity.
