ist-phobe 

The backbone of the social justice warrior debate strategy.

Everyone that disagrees with a social justice warrior feelings logic should be labeled as an "-ist" and a "-phobe". Now it is no longer necessary to pick one that is relevant, or more likely isn't relevant to the situation such as "racist, or "homophobe". Just combine all of them together so you are always right by using the term "ist-phobe".
