My favourite variation on this idea is from Dresden Codak:

How could anyone be so insesivite to use the non inclusive word “man”

Everyone knows Daffy is of duckkind. We should use a more inclusive wording such as “jumble of atoms vs x”

It’s a Looney Tunes meme. Perhaps you’re seeing issues that aren’t really issues.

“Man” in this context means “mankind”, not “male”.

Unironic circular reasoning patriarchy.

TrousersMcPants ,

Man used to be used the way we use the word “human” in modern English, with there being modifiers to signify male or female. At some point we just dropped modifiers for male and decided “man” meant male. However man is still used as a general term for people. There’s definitely patriarchal connotations to it but that’s why you still see it.

It’s an outdated term, but still commonly used. I prefer “humanity,” myself.

I assume this is because Daffy identifies as male.

Also I’m genuinely shocked how half a second of looking at a duck under “No God” immediately gave me the impression of Hunter S. Thompson.
