Describing someone as a "denialist" is a demonization, it is designed to connect the person to absurd Holocaust "deniers".

- kennywinker 13y agoThe point is definitely that it's demonizing. However, I don't think "denialist" is always referencing holocaust denial... that connection didn't occur to me until you mentioned it. I could only think of "climate change denialist" which may be a reference to holocaust denialism, but that's once removed already.
