Istophobe 

A person who attempts to squelch freedom of speech, and silence, shame, and demonize anybody who disagrees with them on any subject by calling that person names that end in -ist or -ophobe, i.e. sexist, feminist, racist, ageist, socialist, fascist, intellectual elitist, atheist, xenophobe, homophobe, heterophobe, Islamophobe, Christianophobe, etc.
There are istophobes on all sides of the political spectrum. Ironically, istophobes claim to be the most tolerant and open minded people in their society. However, istophobes will not allow their opponents to disagree on even the smallest point of the istophobes agenda, and will immediately label their opponent as an extremist who practices racism, sexism, socialism, atheism, xenophobia, homophobia, heterophobia, etc.
Adj. istophobic

Go figure, woke mob is going to accuse me of being an istaphobe for not like Disney's Star Wars Sequel Trilogy. It's almost like they have no other argument when we have valid criticisms for the said trilogy.

istaphobe 

Sarcastic term used to preemptively describe the ad-hominem attacks of woketards that try to invalidate any objective criticism of themselves or their chosen product by labeling any reasonable valid opinion that nonconforms to or does not actively promote the establishment idpol narrative ("The Message") (and by extension anyone that agrees with that opinion), as racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, etc.

Usually done within the context of popular IPs being 'modernized' at the expense of established lore and quality storytelling, which creates strong backlash within the existing fan community, which is then propagandized as 'hate'.
If I say that it's incongruous for there to be black dwarves in the Lord of the Rings by virtue of all dwarves living underground, Twitter will label me as an istaphobe.

introphobe 

A person who is prejudiced against introverts and introverted activities.

Introphobes usually maintain negative and misunderstood viewpoints towards solitary activities and individuals that lead solitary lifestyles. Thus, they contribute to largely negative stereotypes towards introverts and the negative connotations associated with these stereotypes.

Rob and Bob are acquaintances. Bob likes to read, play his guitar and play online first person shooters. Rob likes to go to the bar, drink Martinis and cheat on his girlfriend. Rob thinks Bob's life is boring and "stupid". Rob thinks Bob is probably depressed and a wiener. Rob makes fun of Bob.

In reality, Bob loves every day he is alive. Bob takes great pleasure in the small things. Bob doesn't need 100 friends to feel fulfilled or a new girl every night to feel successful. Bob knows that one real friend is better than 100 fake ones. Bob knows that one love is all the love you need.

Rob's assumptions about Bob are not based on facts or evidence, but on ignorance and fear. Rob is an introphobe.

Rob is also a dink.
