Unfortunately you really can't distinguish if it's actually empowering ironic homophobia of a queer individual or not. Wouldn't take it too seriously, it's the internet after all.


I don’t really see any way this could be ironic or empowering. There are bigger problems to worry about, but we may as well recognize this for what it is.


>we may as well recognize this for what it is

I hate this trend of the internet where we have to agree with anyone who is offended. I don't actually recognize this for what it could be, and my experience and opinion is as valid as others.


Who is the offended person here who you think that you have to agree with? I’m not really following.

My post that you’re replying to just said that I don’t think that the comment on GitHub is likely to be an instance of ironic empowering homophobia. If you disagree then I have no particular beef with you on that factual point - I just think you’re wrong.
