@nicksherman What's especially unsettling is that when a far-right hate group plastered my town with their stickers a few years ago, their branding used a typeface that looked a *lot* like Forza. It wasn't Forza—it was more condensed and less refined, probably a free font from DaFont or whatever—but everything that this AI "font philosopher" said here sounds entirely plausible as to why this group would have selected it.

@nicksherman I wonder if they'll own up to being a company that happily helps you pick a font for your nazi shit, or they'll evade responsibility with an "oopsie, sorry, the computer did this"
