  • Thinking it’s not okay to describe someone as Muslim or Buddhist is pretty funny. I wonder if nationalities are okay, can I be a Finn or should I be “a person of Finnish citizenship” lmao. Come on. Wikipedia uses the term “Muslim”, pretty sure Muslims call themselves Muslims, everyone calls them Muslims.

    But I’m not spending anymore time helping.

    There’s a bazillion nouns used about people, thinking that as a general rule you shouldn’t use a noun, I just have hard time you are being serious about this.

    It was. But lots of things people used to say is not acceptable today. That’s literally the definition of progress: shit gets better…

    It still very much seems to be. The word is all over the place. Some seem to have started calling them “undocumented migrants” and other terms, but it’s still a commonly used term. If you want a short term that’s more “pc”, that seems like a good one in that case, because “people who immigrated illegally” is fucking mouthful for a headline.
