Nobody tells you how to feel. But when you claim your supposed feelings
are the reason to censor other's speech then others have the right to
object. I am not sure why this surprises you.

OK, so far for the 25 years of PHP existence I have never heard of a
person who was personally hurt by the use of term "blacklist". I've
heard lots of things said about PHP, good or bad, but today is the first
time I hear about this. So I am not sure we understand the term
"listening" in the same way.
