We should drop left v right and call them what they really are. Marxist-Leninists
Nope. It has to be short, the fewer the syllables the better. Punchy.
It has to be a word that is untainted by prior association, something new or repurposed, so it doesn't get wrapped up in previously established meanings.
Mind the sound - if you call homosexuals "homophiliacs", there's a quiet but repulsive association with necrophiliacs (who really ought to be called necrosexuals).
It needs a visual anchor so that just looking at them reminds us of the label. "Soyboy" is a terrific example of all these rules.
tldr: We need to think up a Trump-style hurtful nickname.
