labeljacker

A person who steals the moral force of serious labels—such as “Nazi,” “fascist,” or “racist”—and uses them as a shortcut to silence people instead of proving a claim. Labeljackers turn disagreement into public contamination: no evidence, no distinction, no conversation—just a word meant to make everyone back away.

“Marcus did not answer a single point. He called everyone who disagreed with him a Nazi and demanded they be excluded from the discussion. Total labeljacker behavior.”

Related: labeljacking — using a loaded accusation to replace evidence, shut down debate, or make ordinary disagreement seem socially dangerous.

Note: Calling out actual bigotry with evidence is not labeljacking. Using the label as a substitute for evidence is.
