Totally accidental, I'm sure.
and there it is - the racist conspiracy fantasy in full effect
It is the name of a Japanese deity, so I think it is an actual accident. Funny as fuck though!
Yeah a tech billionaire being into Japanese culture is marginally more likely than a billionaire being a Nazi. Lots of over lap of course but I think the Japanese culture fascination is the more likely explanation
I don't think it's more likely but from what I understand he's got another boat with a Japanese name so it's much more likely named after the deity.
This particular shit bag is a huge weeb, and the name is of a Japanese goddess. It doesn't mean he isnt a nazi, just that this is probably a coincidence.
