Pejorative is not a word that most people use, and it's usually drawn up by a PhD-level guy who wants to have a hour-long lecture.....talking about something fairly negative.
The meaning? It's often built to be a concept of disparagement.....a negative view of something. You could even draw upon this as a slur against someone or a cause.
A criticism? Yes, to the ninth-degree.
It's where you view something and have decided to go full-board.....go as negative as possible....to influence the people in front of you.
Words that fit into pejorative ways?
Example: Do-Gooder, typically meaning you've taken a position simply to look good, and it was more for public recognition, than logic.
Example: Cuckservative, typically meaning you do some things in the name of pretending to be a conservative, but for the most part.....are not a conservative.
Example: Cave-people, typically meaning a person who hates changes in their local area or region.
Example: Jobsworth, typically a person who uses rules to prevent people from accomplishing things.
Example: Fundie, typically a person who is on the far end of religion, and lives their life to 100-percent within the rules of the religion, and it bothers them when others fail to 'see the light'.
