Nobody is stopping you from thinking the word "man" or "woman." There's no point in making such a ridiculous claim.

This is clearly just a badly programmed bot. However, if you look at one of the (less) buggy PRs it submitted, you'll find an actually helpful change[1]: replacing gendered pronouns with neutral ones makes sense in the context of documentation, wherever that documentation is in fact gender-neutral in disposition.

Seems like it might be satire after all. The bot follows and is followed by this account @exclusive-human-programmer, which has the following content in their readme: https://github.com/exclusive-human-programmer/exclusive-huma...
