Believe me, I do so understand that - but as an atheist by choice from a
young age, I do not want to live in a deeply irrational world, where
everything you say can be considered racist or insensitive, even if that
makes no sense whatsoever, just because somebody believes it to be that way.
The base of any free and just society for me needs to be reason and
concensus, not any part dictating their perceived truth to the other. To
deviate from that leads down a slippery slope and into a new dark age,
however enlightened/progessive the people propagating it unerringly
believe themselves to be.
Cheers,

I would add to that, that in IT "blacklist" is a purely technical term,
with the "black" having imho no association to people.
Logic has nothing to do with this. There are trends in the public views
and language you have to follow, unless you want to stand out the wrong
way. You can see that with our logo, you can see that with the name of
the language. Its just that the stronger the trends are the more the
negative impact. And these things have a lot of momentum these days.

and if it actually "will result in a better and more just world
somehow".
it may not, but logic and believe exclude each other, and this is the
area of believe.
