Let’s maybe go easy on throwing around charges of “fundamentalism” every which way. I guess it’s an attempt to tap into the universally bad reputation of Bin Laden et al. But that alone should be reason not to stick the label to anyone who has a github account or a product in the App Store.

It’s really just Godwin by another name.

I don't think this is a misapplication of the term "fundamentalism," as it does fit the textbook definition of the term. The parallel of the term to radical terrorism is unfortunate, however. While I don't think it's really accurate to compare this to Godwin's law, you have a point about things quickly escalating to a state of hyperbole.
