I’m not sure I’ve seen any evidence of it existing though, is it just a Boogeyman, or so something that happened a while back? An in joke of some sort?

      If someone claimed that people just say “theft” to mean “transactions I don’t like”, that would be denying the existence of actual theft.

      If someone claimed that people just say “slavery” to mean “jobs I don’t like”, that would be denying the existence of actual slavery.

      Same goes here.

      Pointing out denialism is usually only a problem to the people engaged in it, and the wrongdoers they’re defending.
