    pretending otherwise

    Welcome to modern society. Everybody loves to pretend.

    The people pretending to be offended by some random mistaken word uttered by another.
    Those pretending to care about something that they are using “politically correct” words for.
    Microsoft pretending to care about OSS, in the hopes of getting some highly performant devs.

    Yes, it’s not a slur. But someone told another person to not call them a “cis woman” on camera and now it is whatever, you call it.
