    I get that the name is alliterative, but this is more like Dachau in '33 than Auschwitz in '45.

    I was going to correct you and say that two words starting with A aren't alliteration but assonance. But when I looked it up to make sure I was right, I wasn't. There might not be a word for the same vowel letter in successive words. shrug

    • alliteration – repeated initial consonant sounds in multiple words
    • assonance – repeated vowel sounds within multiple words
    • consonance – repeated consonant sounds within multiple words

    p.s. I support any name that conveys the obvious nazi connection.

    You know, it's this kinda shit that makes people not take y'all seriously. One day, you guys might find an actual problem, and everyone will think "oh they're just ragebaiting again" and ignore them
