For the people telling others to "relax" or that the name is just a meme, consider that how the name affects you isn't the point. The point IS that for a great many people (including myself), the name is deeply hurtful. Many American Jews lost family in the holocaust. Given the scope of that historical trauma, the ghosts of those individuals often feel very present in our lives. Using the words and symbols associated with the system that caused that trauma is a reflection of callous indifference, historical ignorance, and intellectual laziness. To the devs - I urge you to put your ego aside. There are better ways you can take a stand for your rights of free expression. Ways that don't reference the murder of 6,000,000 people.
