Horrible Name. Insanely tasteless. It'd be like if some Cambodian-American girl made a YouTube channel of makeup tutorials that she titled "Khmer Rouge".

I can appreciate the objection to it, but the term has been used for decades in various contexts without controversy.

That's true, but I don't see how that excuses it. It really just shows Western ignorance/callousness toward genocides that didn't grab the headlines.
