C Plus Equality, stylized as C+=, emerged in late 2013 as a satirical programming language project hosted on GitHub by the 'Feminist Software Foundation.' The project was a parody designed to mock the intersection of social justice theory and computer science, featuring a language specification that replaced 'privileged' programming concepts with 'inclusive' alternatives. Despite being an elaborate joke likely originating from 4chan, it gained massive traction on platforms like Reddit and Hacker News. The meme persists today as a shorthand for discussing 'woke' culture in tech or as a general absurdist joke within the software engineering community regarding the absurdity of over-politicizing technical frameworks.
