Objectively you are right. A name doesn’t mean anything.
But it’s 2026 - it’s delusional to still view human beings as rational creatures who make decisions or judgments on an objective, logical basis.
If there were an Android app that cured cancer, 20% of patients would still die waiting for an iOS port. The reality is that getting people to accept something en masse means tailoring it to their philistine, banal, pedestrian expectations.
No, I got your point. I’m rejecting the comparison because paedophilia isn’t a kink and comparing it to one is harmful.
If you renamed Blender to PUSSYLICKER BOOBINATOR 9000, I’d still use it. It’s a good piece of software for the price of nothing. Before you ask; I’m turbo gay. I’m one of those gays who get turned off by tits.
I do use GIMP from time to time. It’s rare for me to need it. The name doesn’t bother me.
There’s a difference between naming something silly and naming something after a well known fetish
Oh noes! A word!

So you’d use a software called “Child Molester 9000” so long as it’s FOSS and kinda replaces Photoshop?
Paedophilia isn’t a fetish, it’s a psychiatric disorder.
Way to miss the point
