The word “Master Race” is clearly equivalent to terms which were used by Nazis and so are today's far right wing and alt-rights.

There are other communities which created similar narratives, especially from the 4chan side, and I think the origin of “PC Master Race” comes from there.

Better post this on PCMR as well, I'm sure it will be well received

I will. I just thought Linux users had a higher moral standard.
