I know that facts don't matter so much during a moral panic, but I'll just say that I teach a class every year at Stanford that tackles hate speech, violence, terrorism, child exploitation, suicide and other really difficult topics and use a lot of these words with no difficulties.

I do give my students a talk up front about the content of the course and the need to be resilient if you want to make a positive impact in this field, but so far no complaints.

"The listed violent crimes committed by named defendants, who all took smaller or larger part in the mass murder of prisoners, also reveal that the accused were involved in the acts of killing for pleasure, and not pursuant to orders of their superiors.

If it were not for their expressed desire to kill, they would have otherwise displayed elements of sympathy for the victims, or at least show indifference to their plight, but not torture them to death."
