The name of this sub is racist or is recreating structural racism (feddit.de)

The word “Master Race” is clearly equivalent to terms which were used by Nazis and so are today's far right wing and alt-rights.

There are other communities which created similar narratives, especially from the 4chan side, and I think the origin of “PC Master Race” comes from there.

Total non-issue

Because?

“Master Race” will still be referring to this kind of “We are over everything, because our race is over everything” narrative.

because the community is not actually about race, its about digital toys

Which is basicly the Linux community in a nutshell. We all see ourselves as superior

Why do you think this using racist language is a non-issue?
