If you read the article, you'll see that Daesh is itself an insulting name. If you have to refer to them somehow, it might as well be a way that upsets them.

- Nadya 11y agoSince we're playing the "if you read" game, I did. I also bothered to research the claim [0]. The article's explanation for why Daesh is insulting is wrong (has nothing to do with conjugation) and the reason the filth gets so upset by the name could just as easily occur by calling filth "filth" as it would by calling filth "Daesh".
