That term was solely coined by the Nazis. He is right in criticizing it. Using faschist terminology like this waters it down and helps fascist to claim their spaces in the middle of society all while normalizing their ideology.

Yahtzee from Zero Punctuation is a nazi? Cause that's who coined the term.

I think they refer to the original term

But should also be noted that Yahtzee used the term to parody the snootyness of PC gamers. But they then started to use it unironically
