From a quick look the literal translation is "fire speech" which doesn't seem that hard to understand. So it would seem the significance is its place as a cultural touchstone, and cultures can certainly differ.

That's unfortunate, but I don't think I said anything unnecessarily inflammatory - rather just tying together concepts each claimed by the red and blue tribes that they mostly use to talk past each other.
