It isn't as bad, using a modern slang term is not as bad as being racist or sexist, maybe those on the left are just more aware of this differential?
Personally I don't think that there is any such thing as a 'chav' it's another made up term to describe a those who fall into a certain socio economic group. There are terms used as a collective term for many groups, 'PC' 'snowflakes' or 'SJWs'
If you have used a collective term yourself it's hard not to suggest you're being hypocritical to finger wag when others do it.
