Turns out there was a “Thule Society” which helped lay the foundations of Nazidom in post-WW1 Germany,
although it never attracted even 2000 members. There are all sorts of conspiracy theories about it and it is a popular boogieman in thrillers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thule_Society. These fools held this up and claimed that the planetoid name was a “dog-whistle” for white supremacists (it sure looks like the people who level such accusations are on a witch hunt, according to them, there are an amazing number of white power signals and symbols everywhere in our society)

Of course “Ultima Thule’ dates back thousands of years to the Romans and has nothing to do with Nazis or white supremacists.

Rather reminds of the Washington political staffer who lost his job because of the morons who protested his use of the word “niggardly” – meaning terribly small as in “his niggardly pension”,
