No dude, you are just flooded with too much US tabloid politics.
When a major cultural event occurs, symbols and words can be forced into new meanings in that society after having gone through the significant or traumatic event.
The swastika, historically a symbol symbolizing representing well being and prosperity, now cannot be seen without associating it with hatred fascism.
I think it's relevant for a western country to consider the concept that "Q" can be interpreted in different ways than it was before but a significant number of people, and a large company should have something like that on their radar, especially for a marketing/branding perspective.
Well comparing Q to the swastika maybe reasonable on the basis on both of their background ideas being deranged to a similar degree, but the Q movement’s historical insignificance is just laughable in comparison.
Blacklisting the letter Q because of a handful of dipshits that most of the world doesn’t even know about is preposterous.
