It was a real LinkedIn post from their marketing team. After the backlash, they first tried letting the LinkedIn post stand, disabling the comments, and replacing some of the campaign images with a woman of color. But now I think they removed the post entirely. And they've reversed course publicly, pretending that they never intended "the double meaning behind the campaign [that] has a culture shaping power" and that it was only a genes/jeans pun.
