No, it's not. It is intended as an accurate description. If it is to be banned because it is considered insulting by some, why is not the misuse of the word "skeptic" to describe the same people - which we true skeptics consider equally insulting - also banned?

If you aren't willing to switch off a word someone finds offensive then it seems there isn't going to be a debate here. It isn't going to pursuade anyone just offend. Its up to you - my choice is to tune out so I won't be seeing any of your arguments. Meh.

I notice a post using the insulting term "warmist". Others have used the insulting term "climate alarmist". So why not equal treatment for everone? Or are you just pushing your own prejudices?
