 People have always been bigoted and exclusionary.  Its just some dress
up their exclusion as "diversity" and "inclusion"
 Its just the same old, same old.  People haven't changed.
 Some of the most bigoted, supremacist and hostile people I've met were
so called anti-racists.

The worst racist I have met to date was a Pakistani Muslim. who wanted all Jews exterminated
The second worst was a Ugandan Indian who had his business and his whole life destroyed by Idi Amin. He simply would not do business with any African no matter how far removed from Africa.
The third was an Afrikaaner who genuinely believed 'the blacks don't have souls, you know'
Racism is no way a white only issue.
