Your post is toxic to me. Please don't ask me what that means.

Or: Sure. How about murderers? They are frequently described as inhuman, barbaric, etc. Was that really the point you were trying to make, or is there something else you are getting at?

I grant you that it's less bad to ostracize "murderers" than "[insufferable,] young programmers".

That doesn't put ostracizing young programmers in the plus column.

You asked: Is there a sector of the community that is okay to ostracize with word choice?

I responded. Explain yourself more precisely if you want me to consider your point...
