Politicizing The Tragedy 

a Republican LieSpeak term: "The Tragedy" is of course some entirely avoidable horror, generally a large loss of life, and generally this occurred due to some policy that Republicans fully support. "Politicizing" is being used here as a synonym for "Doing something about it (to prevent it)"

Thus "Politicizing The Tragedy" is a form of LieSpeak that enables sociopathic people to actually flip the script and call people out for wanting to do something to stop the horror.
-After each deadly house fire without a fire department, the small town tried to set up a fire department paid for with town taxes, but the anti-tax crowd always screams that setting up a fire department and raising local taxes to pay for it is Politicizing The Tragedy.

-The Nazi screamed at me: "What do you mean that we must do something to stop the needless killing? You want to stop the killings? No, the killings must go on, and you are the monster for trying to stop them because you are Politicizing The Tragedy!"

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
