And any words of Torah. You can’t mention a simple halacha in mikva even without mentioning Hashem’s name due to the holiness of Torah.
Likewise, some people may feel uncomfortable mentioning “rebbe” (title for a holy man) in the mikva. Most Lubavitchers do mention him there, some don’t. This has nothing to do with deifying ch”v.

It’s crazy to see the lengths that people will go to imply the completely fabricated deification ch”v.

I once heard a “shiur” from David Bar-Hayim on the “issues” with Chabad. When he quotes a sicha, he points out that the date is printed as אחש”פ השי”ת – which he claims is implying that chassidim are calling the Rebbe השי”ת.

This ignorance would be amusing if it wouldn’t be accusing a group of Yidden of Avodah Zorah ch”v. In all letters and seforim of the Rebbe and his father in law, the year 5710 is referred to as השי”ת (swapping around the letters ה’תש”י). Just as the Rebbe refers to 5744 as תשד”מ and 5751 as תנש”א etc.
