That's the thing, most of these terms are meaningless cant rather than worthwhile or valid neologisms.
You'd be okay with being called a Racist Bowel Syndrome! But apart from that, anything that's new would fit your criteria. You accept the old because it's old, while the new is cant, tendentious, etc. It's a problem with your point of view, your conceptual filters.
