A pretty horrible compound. Thought criminal (two words) appears here. DonnanZ (talk) 00:02, 21 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

cited Kiwima. Initially coined by Orwell, although he hyphenated the word. (talk) 00:48, 21 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
NGram Viewer can't find it, and the term may be older than you think. Anyway I created thought criminal which appears to be more common. There is a band named the "Thought Criminals", which doesn't help when searching. DonnanZ (talk) 12:23, 21 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
