That’s what the terms “radical”, “fundamentalist”, “extremist” are for. They’re subjective, but correct for a given socium.

You know how people are: They sometimes are too easily offended or they worry too much about giving offense. So I think the best way to deal with this particular logical fallacy is to call it out if its not needed* but at the same time to be understanding about why it was said and help the speaker find a better way of saying what (s)he needs to say.

*: In a few cases logic has to get tossed out due to others’ paranoia, or due to hostile propaganda. So there are some rare times when a logical fallacy simply has be allowed because the confusion and inaccuracy it causes are preferable to an even worse outcome which would otherwise be likely.
