    I know the “attack helicopter” bit is a transphobic trope, but given how hard those fans are probably working, I think this computer might actually identify as one.

    (If this comment is offensive I can remove it/mod can obviously remove it — not trying to be a dick!)

        Correct me if I’m wrong, but I feel like it can also be a good way to potentially start reclaiming the discourse

      No worries. I’m far from offended since I have no idea what “attack helicopter” means in a transphobic sense XD

        In short, transphobes see being trans as so laughably stupid that they “identify as an attack helicopter”

        Anyway, I like to find ways to include the flags of communities I’m part of within the thread count I have (used to be 8, now it’s 16) and it’s a fun challenge

          Neat! The flag/core count part, not the transphobia part. Transphobia will never be cool.
