These meme reduces him from a brilliant scientist to “lol he gay” just like the British government did after the war. Why do people upvote this homophobic shit?
I took it as a celebration of his life, with a dash of “Hey, as a gay man, life is way better, today.”
I’m not sure “reduces him (Alan Turing) from a brilliant scientist” is possible, on Lemmy.
We don’t have saints here, but if we that ever changes, Alan Turing and Ada Lovelace will probably be our first and secondsecond and third saints (edit: apologies to Feed Rogers. I feel silly.).
Edit: Heck, this is fun. Here’s a proposal for our first round inductee Saints of Lemmy candidates:
Fred Rogers (Automatic round one draft pick.)
Then for consideration to complete our first induction year:
Members of the production teams behind Mr Rogers Neighborhood, Sesame Street, Blues Clues + It might take a few years to induct everyone who deserves it.
I might keep returning to this list. Lots of folks deserve credit here.
Homophobic might be a bit far but it is sexist and stupid. Not terribly different from saying that if Marie Curie were alive she’d go straight to tinder instead of entering the debate about atomic energy.

How is it homophobic to depict him ignoring some annoying chuds and checking out useful new tech instead
