It wouldn't get to the top of hacker news, because:

1) Nobody does that; 2) It's not the tip of a bigger iceberg.

Better equivalents:

A) John being introduced at a PTA meeting in a way that draws attention to stereotypes of males as inept and uninvolved in child rearing.

B) Jamal being introduced at a business meeting in a way that awkwardly draws attention to his white girlfriend.

C) Amir being introduced at a social gathering in a way that draws attention to terrorist Middle Easterners.

At best this is a weird social faux-pas.
