Hello PCMR community!

On July 13th, we asked the community for your opinion if you would like to change the name of this community.

Results of the Survey :

  • Yes - 28.1%
  • No - 71.9% (winner)

Of the 1,201 responses received, we as a community have democratically decided that we should not change the name from PC Master Race. I am grateful to our community for your input, as this was a difficult topic to navigate together.

If you would like to review the history of this, please check out this post here: https://lemmy.world/post/1430610

We’ll pin this post for some time and then consider adding a bullet into the sidebar for this Community to help stave off further discussions around this topic as the community has already decided collectively.

Kind regards,

The Moderator Team

    It is literally making fun of the idea of a master race

    Right but it’s not funny i guess, like haha lots of people thought they were the superior race and killed millions and millions of people.

    Idk, it’s like mocking a school shooter, like those kids, their victims, are dead, it’s not funny. It’s actually about the most serious thing anyone could imagine.

    I get it, i frequent pcmr a lot, and i never took it seriously, but once the question is posed, i do feel like I don’t want to continue coming here with the name as is.
