I know the BBC has been worrying about what to call them.
They seem to be using "so called islamic state" at the moment.
For fear of insulting other Islamists.

We shouldn't give a shit about whether they should be called Islamic just because they're mass-murdering fucks. Because (a) it's not the job of non-muslims to decide what makes someone muslim, and (b) it doesn't really matter: what's important is that they're still mass-murdering fucks.
By that measure we should also say "so called Catholic church" because of their active support of rapists.
I mean both of those religions' holy books are very pro-murder/rape, and I'm sure that many of them justify their actions by what their books say - but tbh the most pressing problem right now are the respective murderers/rapists.
Also I like that the BBC's reporting pleases and angers me in equal measure. Clearly it means they're doing their job properly.

Yeah, why do we even use a name?
Clearly, we should just use a different off-the-cuff description of them every time.

I wish they'd start called us 'the so called United Kingdom'
We're split down the middle on Brexit, the porridge wogs want out, the taffs and bog trotters aren't very keen, there's a huge north south divide that chippy northerners are always whining about, inbreds in the south west are increasingly uppity, London bears absolutely no resemblance whatsoever to the rest of the country, we should all balkanise.
