  • This is a word game that cryptofascists play; they’re quite open about using it to recruit people.

    They love the plausible deniability, because it makes people who don’t know about the word game think the people who do are being ridiculous.

    Was this a false positive? Perhaps. Is the game worse off for changing the name away from a fascist dog-whistle? I don’t know, it looks pretty terrible in any case.

    Regardless, there are ways for a company to make it clear that they are not fascists even if they want to stick to their name. Maybe you’re right and we should just ignore the cryptofascist messaging game, but that just presents more problems in my opinion.
