Both of you have excellent points, though I think what White Devil means by "casual racism/sexism/homophobia of past decades" is stomping out the entitlement that comes from so-called "equality" being used and abused. I agree, it sounds harsh on the surface at first, but there's a hidden meaning. What made those men men were sticking to their guns without shooting themselves in the foot, which is why they set boundaries so things won't get out of hand with "muh reparations", "muh soggy knees", "it's whitey's fault", etc like [current year + 6]. Obviously not the retarded shit from incel and extreme right-wing groups, but shutting it down with a "we're not jabbing Timmy with irreversible hormones, giving him dresses and calling him 'Tina', and that's final! End of discussion." At best equity can be achieved, but not everybody's gonna qualify for the top of the heap. Life isn't fair, and taking the easy way out with affirmative action isn't the answer.
Except troons and child predators. They can face the wall, get fucked both ways with a cactus, and then get gunned down.
