The question you ask is of the form, "Have you stopped beating your wife?" so I shall decline to answer it directly.

My blog post is quite proudly poking fun at the sanctimonious virtue signalling, as I see it, in the gesture of renaming the 'master' branch.

If you want to talk about real racism and discrimination in society, I'm all for it. I'd like to see a world in which skin color matters as much as hair color. And if you do, too, you should be doing more productive things with your time than looking up my Internet footprint, stalking me, and trying to get me cancelled.
