bigot listとは 意味・読み方・使い方

語源

Origin uncertain.

• One common etymology is that BIGOT is a reversal of the codewords "TO GIB", meaning "To Gibraltar", connected to the Allied invasion of North Africa in November 1942.
• Alternatively, other sources state that BIGOT was a codeword for Operation Overlord, the Western Allies' plan to invade German-occupied western Europe during World War II, and that the term was an acronym for "British Invasion of German Occupied Territory".

See bigot list on Wikipedia for more.

In either case, not derived from or related to the word bigot (“a person devoted to their own beliefs”).
