I find it disgusting that we have come to this place in our society. A person is chosen for their gender, or their skin color instead of basic qualifications. This is blatant discrimination and it’s got to stop. Is this what the Civil Rights movement was about – punish a person for his skin color or his sexuality if the person isn’t the best show of diversity? What happened to Martin Luther King’s words about judging someone for the content of his character, not the color of his skin?

I compare these people to Nazi Germany or the deep south during Jim Crow because there's bigotry that's socially encouraged and these people are leaning hard into it.
It's ironic because they think they're the ones who would be fighting against the 1945 Nazis, when in reality they are the ones who would be ganging up against the Jews in 1945 Germany. They definitely would be participating in lynch mobs in the Jim Crow era south, seeing as they participate in modern lynch mobs today.

Jim Crow lynch mobs were Democrats.
Hitler's party were socialists - it was in their party name
Some things never change
