I'd call publicly accusing someone of a deliberate act of "wrongdoing" without evidence of intent an attack. I watched that video and have no clue what you are talking about, Nobody can be expected to be aware of everything that might offend or "trigger" someone out there.
These days a lot of people taking care of these psychological triggers seem to use the term "content warning" instead of "trigger warning", probably to distance themselves from the abuse of the latter term.

AFAICT that shift happens simply because people may want to avoid certain content even if they don't have PTSD e.g. I'd put [cw gore] if posting a pic of an injury, doesn't make sense to mark it with [tw]

That's fair enough, but I think there's some influence from the abuse of the term too. There's certainly quite a bit of abuse; I've seen lots of clearly BS claims that "X triggers me", but I think the true sufferers are more likely to suffer quietly.
