I understand the logic behind the words. Ignorance overall, in a broad reaching and commonly understood definition, refers to someone who is uninformed, assuming, etc. It is often used as a degrading term, implying a lack of culture or education. Defining as insensitivity is a stretch, in my opinion.

There is a great South Park about people using the term in situations where it doesn't apply. The Michael Jackson one, its great.
