I've seen this phenomenon called 'Rustwins law' as it bears striking similarities to Godwin's law in its inevitability.

If the law suggests that Rust wins, I'm sure the Rust community will not strenuously object.

Godwin's law isn't about losing the argument. It's just an observation that national socialism is going to be mentioned in the limit as the conversation grows without end.
