You captured the nuance nicely. Parent comment about toxicity is getting downvoted into oblivion, but repackaging toxicity as: "dude, it's just a joke" is one of the mechanisms by which toxcicity spreads (see: the 2013-to present redpill/alt-right/whitenationalist culture). Like the "trad-wife / Aryan" quad-panel meme, which also has been "normalized" but started off as a horribly racist meme, so the bad guys sort of "won" with it. That said, I see where the github creator is going and can have a chuckle at this and still cringe, but he probably had no idea of how this would be received by non bro-grammers. Everyone needs to learn that ignorance is no excuse at some point in their lives. And that's a hard lesson to learn when you are from the apex intersections.
