Too many more cases like this, and I may come out in favor of anti-antidisenfranchisementarianism.

I’m trying to figure out the difference between:
antidisenfranchisementarianism
and
antidisenfranchisementalism

-Arian connotes an ideology, while -al connotes a more vague connection. Anything that is of or relating to the environment is environmental, but that’s not the same thing as environmentalism. If there were a word “environmentarian,” it would probably be a synonym for environmentalist.
Also, the cliche for the longest word is antidisestablishmentarianism, so I prefer to base the disenfranchisement word on that, by analogy.
