A slur is a slur, no matter how you dress it.
If I made a program named "Fag*ot", I'm sure, nobody cared about my story how it's just a bunch of sticks.
That's not how it works. But there's an effort to fork the program and rename it.
The 'harassment': "can we join your instance?" - "no, your program name is a slur".
