I hate the word "ask" used as a noun. There's a word for that already, it's called a "request".

any word or expression ending in Nazi such as grammer nazi.

Using Nazi to describe someone unless they believe in the master race, feel sorry that
Hitler could not finish the job etc. Using Nazi that way both lessens the meaning of what the actual
Nazi's did and what the person bieng accused of bieng a Nazi has possibly done.

denier because I associate it with holocaust denial. I know some people are using the term literaly but I usually suspect consciously or unconsciously the term is bieng used to associate the person bieng accused of denial with holocaust denial. To say that the accused and thier point of view are completly unworthy.
