Arguing Semantics

We aren't their teachers, and the new name isn't really rule breaking. There's plenty of words spelled similar to words we don't allow that we do allow and it'd be pretty silly to disallow them, so to me this is kind of silly even if it's a bigoted thing for how close it still is. I don't care how this turns out either way, I just found it a bit silly.
this is why the context matters, he changed it to be as close as possible to "antisemitic" because he was being forced to change his name lol. If a random guest joined with the name "antisemantic" it would have a different context than goose. I don't agree with blanket punishing words that rhyme with orange but I don't believe that is what is occurring here.

Also "antisemantic" not even a real word lol, that kind of reinforces the idea that it's just poking the bear at this point, no?
