As to me: I think the term is divisive, much like Black Lives Matter. If you have to spend that much time describing how your term is not what you call it, then you might want to re-look the term.

A member of the Senate drafted a reform bill but because of the Dems they weren't even allowed to debate it.

Iirc it was a very straight forward bill that should have been able to have been passed with unanimous consent. One could just as easily cast doubt on the motives of the republicans for insisting it go up for debate.
