"I can't remember the last time I called someone a name"

I'll stipulate that you are good at not doing that directly
or overtly. IMO, you can almost credibly make such a claim &
attempt to create the perception of having the highest
principles & ethics. You may even believe that means you are
above the fray.

That does not mean that you don't demean, ridicule, malign or
intentionally insult individuals, & groups of people. And it
does not mean you don't look down on, talk down to, dismiss
out of hand, vilify &/or berate individuals or groups of
people who just do not happen to be in lockstep with your
POV's.

And believe it or not, when folks do so frequently &
publicly; some people are going to see right through the ruse
& call them on it when it happens.
