The utility in the word "toxic" is it's vagueness and ambiguity. You can get so many people against toxicity because everyone can find someone they consider toxic.
Any adjective with more precision than "toxic" would start subdividing the category in a way that no longer hides all the mutual exclusive definitions of toxicity.
