  Oh, check today's date. I guess tomorrow someone will be offended that someone is making fun of their movement to rid language of sexism and patriarchy. ;) Edit: but... the bot tried to submit the PR 3 days ago. So... not an April Fool's prank?

    This is NOT an april fools joke.

      If it is, it escaped into the wild a couple days too soon. It's so bad I really can't take it as something serious. It's just a poor-taste joke at the expense of vulnerable groups.

        Looks like a student, trying to improve things and making some mistakes that are very much to be expected for a student project. Kudos for the effort, and I think they probably learned a good lesson in test data generation.

  One "debate me" is pretty cringe, but two, I don't think you'd find anyone who thinks those are serious suggestions. It's either a bug or someone trolling. I push hard for gender neutral language, but not whatever this change is proposing. Helps is not a gendered term, and should remain helps.
