I appreciate the comradery, but perhaps a different name would be more appropriate.

What do you mean?

u/CliffyClaven is referring to the “thin blue line” touted by law enforcement as the metaphorical distinction between civilian lives and lives of police officers. The person he responded to works for a company called Blue Line (I guess). So Claven here is saying it’s an unfortunate name due to the manufactured association by dolts who are easily triggered by coincidence.
