Maybe four syllables. What about "burblegerfer?"
burblegerfer
/bər-bəl-gər-fər/
noun
A universal slur slurring another person who uses slurs, including the slur, "burblegerfer." "Burblegerfer" conveys more offensive contempt than all other slurs combined, rendering them obsolete.
For example, if someone calls you a "commie" or "libtard" or "xyz-phobe," or "bigot," or one of the classic, unsayable slursor even "burblegerfer" itselfyou can fire back, "You're just a worthless burblegerfer!"
And they can fire back, "Burblegerfer says what?"
And you can fire back, "I'm rubber and you're glue, burblegerfer!"
And it can keep going like that but just with a single word flying back and forth instead of a bunch of different ones like now.
