Well, I appreciate the sentiment even if others don't and they do raise concerns which need to be addressed. In linguistics you can do a "linguistic corpus analysis" which is sorta seeing historically how language was used. If it's unambiguously used towards say disenfranchised individuals, or towards a group of people who are the ire at the time (think muslims or anyone from south asia or the middle east post 9/11, if there's a huge spike in usage with sentences including the word 'muslim' or 'terrorist', etc.) I think there's a good argument to be made. Otherwise it seems difficult to convince others it's a good idea.
