If the name changes, won’t another community with the same name just pop up? (self.pcmasterrace)

Maybe I am failing to understand the point here, but if the name gets changed, what would be the point if a new PC Master Race community can just get remade afterwards? The name of this community is really the only differentiating piece of identity that makes this community different from any other PC gaming community.

...gonna be honest here, I've never given the name enough thought to make the connection. Just assumed it was all about clowning on console and mobile gamers and that was it.

Right, you have the correct outlook on it.

The people who see it differently have spent too much time online and have been taught to look for these things and then work to get them changed.

Do what you do with all of the trolls and just ignore them and they will go away

A PC or a Console arent analogous to human beings. A PC gamer is not a race, it’s a joke about being a superior platform.
