Dr. Smoots, I completely agree with your article. Whenever you know that someone is using either a euphemism or dysphemism in conversation, it should be corrected. Sometimes euphemisms may be warranted e.g. if children are present who may not quite understand the nuances of the conversation. However dysphemisms in my opinion should always be corrected because you are replacing a vulgar, derogatory or offensive word with something accurate and inoffensive. Thank you for bringing this topic to the forefront of my mind that I might make better use of it.

Good list of words leftists use for rightists. Maybe also: far-right. cis-gendered, hater?
Here's an interesting, somewhat satirical article about the left and right making up words to use against each other.

I agree. The far left is a problem. But those who say the far left gives us reason to support Trump are equally a problem.
