It's a joke... Just loaded up the game. First hand was a straight. People can chill...

You must be straight here.

People that feel mocked by this probably take their straightness/queerness too seriously. The joke is that the devs have no way to discriminate queer/straight users, something that is factually true for the game devs and aspirationally true for society.

Balatro is a poker game. I took this to mean straight as in the hand, not straight as in some of their players

No it's a wordplay on the pokerhand and the sexual orientation.

I suppose I can see what they mean - if the goal is to foster inclusiveness then uplifting all would be a better means to achieve that rather than denigrating and "other"-ing some.
Otoh, knowing that it's fake, it's kinda just funny and I don't take it with any seriousness at all.

This is a feature, only idiots optimize for straights.

Yeah cant see this going any other way other than irritating players and leading to people inevitably, but incorrectly, placing the blame on lgbt folkEDIT: fake, didn't realise, mb, seemed like something balatro dev would do for a joke.
