O-Phobia

I see a lot of comments about how somone is a hater and other comments about how the word hate is used too much.
What if we just used the phobia word. As in, I have Loudmouthophobia = I hate Joan Rivers
I have Slobakeophobia = prejudice against Slobake (although I don't see how that could possibly exist)

Because that would be the same issue as using "hate," when it is too strong of a word for what it's being used to describe.

If you had a Joan Rivers phobia, it would take hours to console you any time you thought about plastic faces.

A "phobia" is an irrational fear. I hate it when people misuse that word.

Yes but think how fun it will be to make up new words.

Yeah, I don't care for the misuse of *phobia* as well as the overuse of the word *hate*
I am not afraid of or hate either term
