I guess they couldn’t care less about the sensibilities of non-Muslims.
That’s the origin of the word, kaffir, it comes from the Muslim word kuffar that came into use by Dutch S.Africans after coming across the term used by Muslim slave traders.
‘Racist’ bird names banned by Sweden

Four different bird species which include the word “neger” (“negro”) have been renamed using “svart” (“black”) instead.
Other feathered creatures known as “swifts” in English will no longer be called “kaffer” in Swedish. This word, which can also be spelt “caffer” and “kaffir” is a racist term that has been used by white South Africans towards black South Africans.
So white-rumped swifts will now be known as “vitgumpseglare” in Swedish.
“So white-rumped swifts will now be known as “vitgumpseglare” in Swedish.”
But ‘vit’is ‘white’ in Swedish isn’t it?
As a caucasian – I find the use of the word ‘vit’ as racist.
“I thought it would be a few reactions, but there have not been so many,” Erling Jirle a researcher at the University of Lund and bird enthusiast told Swedish newspaper Sydvenskan.
That can be put down to the fact that no matter how many objections they get from regular folk, the Swedish PC crowd will ignore them anyway. So the people give up trying.
Another very small and subtle example of the slow death of our cultural heritage brought about by utopian minded socialist idiots – who underneath are frightened little cowards.
