I don’t know how you got to “culture war and homophobia”? It’s literally a meme phrase that’s used (often sarcastically) in response to stories on the internet. Saying something is “fake and gay” is literally shitposting, I think interpreting any deeper meaning into it is a bit of a stretch.
Edit: I just realised that this is a greentext community… half the comments here are either fake or gay, and OPs post is most definitely both.
It is a traditional slang on 4chan (and somme parts of r*ddit).
Years ago there where a few sincere jokes with it now it is just straight up homophobia and culture war shit.

I see now, I don’t know how I went through the 2000’s without realizing this phrase was a meme until now.
