Derogatory language - view from sociology

Found some interesting statements from sociology about derogatory language:

•  Sociologists point to derisive language as an indicator of flawed reasoning ...
• a fundamental axiom of sociology recognizes that derogatory forms of speech make erronious attributions ....
• Scholars classify the erroneous assumptions as the fundamental attribution error

Would be interesting to look from this point of view also at derisive language in scientific papers and discussion, for example by David Kenneth Johnson:

• http://www.kjf.ca/78-C31JO.htm (CONSTRUCTIVISM DE-RADICALIZED)
• http://www.kjf.ca/78-C84JOH.htm  (BONES IN THE CONSTRUCTIVIST CLOSET)
