Wow. The word that jumped out at me from this whole brilliant rant was one I have seldom heard applied to this particular discussion: bullying.
That is a really powerful word that I think is a good way to address the kind of people who shut down around language that they perceive as "too feminist." Terms like "harassment" and "privilege" sound a little ivory tower to a lot of the people who need to hear this message. I am definitely reclaiming "bullying" for this topic.
