    This meme has always struck me as homophobic. It’s doing the same thing the English government did after the war: focusing on his sexuality while ignoring his scientific contributions. At least the AI bros depicted here are trying to consider what his opinions would be about something other than his sexuality.

    Sexuality is supposed to occupy a small, benign area of a person’s life. It’s annoying when people accuse gay people of making everything about their gayness. Society does that to them, and they’re just reacting to society obsessing over their personal lives.

    Your argument doesn’t support your conclusion. It could be an image of anything? Exactly. It could be anything but it’s a woman instead.

    The words on the image are classic fucking misogyny. Men have been saying this boomer humor shit since before boomers even existed.

    It’s deliberate. I’ve seen dozens of posts from Mickey7 which are blatantly misogynistic, and here’s another one. I usually don’t say anything but I’m fed up.

    “You don’t have to take this seriously” is another classic misogynistic line that people use to downplay pushback. Lemmy is well known as a place that is hostile to women, and this post is pretty blatant about it.
