Well, actually I was thinking more of the symbol spotting "OMG it's a pentagon/ checker pattern/something vaguely resembling horns" that keep showing up as a sure sign of evil intent "because they have to let you know they are Satanists/pedophiles/enemy du jour." What you are describing is a kind of semantic entrapment or passive aggressive strategy of manipulating other people. Which I think is evil too, but in a different way.
