sloganize
Create catchy phrases
To sloganize is to reduce something to a slogan—a brief, catchy phrase meant to capture an idea or rally support.
The word often carries a dismissive tone, suggesting oversimplification: Complex policy debates get sloganized into bumper stickers.
You can sloganize an issue, a movement, or a candidate's platform.
