Don’t call them “Islamists” either because it might offend Islamists
If you thought that the insanity of political correctness had reached its peak, then think again.
Never mind Obama refusing to use the term “radical Islamic terrorism,” now the BBC has suggested that calling terrorists “terrorists” might be a bigoted thought crime.
A tweet sent out by BBC Scotland asks, “Do you think we should remove the word “Islamist” or “terrorist” from our newspapers or does it categorise the atrocities for what they are?”

Do you think we should remove the word “Islamist” or “terrorist” from our newspapers or does it categorise the atrocities for what they are?
Because referring to Islamists who carry out atrocities in the name of Islam as “Islamists” might offend Islamists.
Even worse, calling terrorists who carry out acts of terror “terrorists” might be Islamophobic.
“Paging Mr Orwell, the BBC needs you to slap some sense into them,” responded popular YouTuber Sargon of Akkad.
“No that would be absolutely stupid. Get a grip,” remarked another Twitter user.
“If you don’t name them, they’ll cease to exist, right?” added another.
It’s no surprise that this comes from the BBC, an organization that is so politically correct it actively discourages white people from applying for jobs in order to make itself more ‘ethnically diverse’.
However, the mere notion that the words “Islamist” and “terrorist” should be censored because they don’t accurately “categorise the atrocities for what they are,” is totally absurd and suggests that the BBC thinks some terrorist atrocities are actually justified and that terrorists shouldn’t be called the pejorative term “terrorist”.
Absolute unbridled insanity.

Good grief. Soon, if I say the sky is blue, I’m going to be accused of offending Smurfs.

Idiots, calling something what it is can never be politically incorrect; BBC management must be made of morons!

I wish you were correct. BBC is working for a small group, parasites of privilege, paid to address and program a public they are assuming to be comprised of morons.

The other side of the same coin: feel free to physically attack us, rape our women, get them on drugs, and change the nation we have strived for so long to build so that it can be turned into a sharia-ruled land. No reasonable human being has a right to offense with such activity by new guests invited to contribute so much to the United Kingdom and its Commonwealth.

Just in case you haven’t noticed the whole of the UK media and political world, from a national to local level, have all been infected by political, multicultural, and religious correctness.
Which is why a lot of the enlightened in the UK read the foreign press and media to find out what is actually going on in the UK.

Likewise, many here in the US know they don’t get real news from the White House controlled media and look to foreign news oulets to get the truth about what’s happening in America.
