The origin of the phrase "PC/Linux/whatever-non-serious-thing master race" is self-deprecating. It's an ironic jab at the enthusiasts in these communities that take themsevles way too seriously and gatekeep users of other platforms.
Do you know of any actual minorities who are upset by this phrasing, or are you just white knighting?
