LETTER: Identity politics at work on the Democratic side

I am thinking of starting a consulting company. I will need only one employee other than myself. I think I will post an ad in the Review-Journal and on social media seeking a straight white male for the job. Of course, the Review-Journal would not take my ad and those on social media would call me a racist, bigot, homophobe, etc. Also I think this would be illegal.
So when the president said he would consider only a Black woman for the Supreme Court and when California Gov. Gavin Newsom said he would only consider a Black woman to fill Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s seat, what does that make them? To those on the left, that would make them bigots, racists, homophobes, etc.
