Or maybe like antis' use of "pedophile" - not in that it's used as a dogwhistle for a minority demographic the way "terf" or "zionist" are, but in the sense that it's a convenient conversation-ender. "Are you saying you want all trans people to kill themselves???" in response to, like, "having a vagina isn't a social privilege" is the equivalent of "so you support child molestation???" in response to someone saying that slash fic is actually okay.
