Accidentally Racist Naming Of Orbital Construction

ZULU OSCAR OSCAR LIMA · Tuesday at 11:16 PM

So, the Random Name Generator just named my Site when I Initialised its Construction.
There is just one problem, it generated a Name that could be taken the wrong way.

Construction Site: Relay Station
The Name It Came Up With: Black Town

I have to wonder, why it was able to come up with that name.
If they called it Black Site, that would have been a bit cool, but Black Town... Oooff, Reroll please...

.

So, anyone else had this sort of thing happen?

I think that you are overthinking this. It is a none issue/not offensive imo. Bear in mind, there is an actual "Blacktown City" in Australia.

Similar real life names would be Whitehaven, Blackpool, Blackburn. Black Hills (US) or Black country (UK).

Why would Black Town be racist? People read far too much into things these days.

So you don't actually care about the name, you're just trying to gaslight other people by claiming that they do... when they're not even aware of it.
I wonder why there's so much division in your world.

You could still claim it was named after George Albert Black, an "important shipbuilder in Quebec" in the early 19th century:

I'm going to stop this here. The word Black is not racist.

The rest of what happened after is not welcome here.
