Anti-Semantic

When people are upset by the choice of words you use. Can be used as a noun or adjective.
For example, if you were to use “death” to describe “dismantling an institution”, and someone takes offence. They were to say, “hey saying death to an institution is just as bad as murdering babies and committing genocide.”You could call that person an Anti-Semantic. Or you could say their views are Anti-Semantic.
