It's sophistry.
They want to change something, the onus is on them to provide the reasoning for the change. By accusing you of being afraid or that your opposition is irrational they shift the burden of proof to you and delay any debate on the merits of their desired change.
Then they get what they want and you aren't able to stop it. If you try, you're a reactionary and you hate the people they were claiming to help.
