The sexism of this appointment is something I'm actually disappointed in Trump for.

It's not equality if you only consider women, or blacks, or whites, or asians or any trait that cannot be controlled by the person.

Only the content of character should matter.

Only considering women completely eliminates over half of the best possibilities.

We need to stop all of these identity issues including the rampant sexism against men.

I’ve been saying this since the start and been getting downvoted to hell for it. If a woman is the best pick, great. But we don’t know if she’s the best pick if you don’t consider anyone other than women.

What’s next, do we have to replace Clarence with a black man when he retires? It’s all so stupid

It's Critical Gender Theory also called 4th wave feminism.

The idea is that because some group has historically been "oppressed" they now get advantages to speed up "equality." Known racially as Affirmative Action.

Yes the "logic" is that creating intentional inequality will lead to equality.

Also the focus changing from equality of opportunity to equality of outcome has led to the absolute illogical mayhem that we have seen unfold with BLM.

Illogical "moral" principles that contradict the actual logically defensible moral foundations of the US can do nothing but harm and represent a "religion" that is far more intolerant that the "Religious Right" of the Regan years even dreamed of.

It's no mistake that logic hasn't been taught in public schools for decades. People who do not know how to think are far more easily swayed by their emotions.

And yes they would argue that replacing a man with large amounts of melanin in his skin with someone with less would be a removal of power from an historically oppressed group and therefore racist.

I think it's strategic, to avoid wasting time on rape allegations with the election on the way.

When strategy or practicality supersede morality you're headed into the swamp.

Critical Gender Theory should not be embraced because it's expedient.
