Extremism on migration, race and gender?

Well... that's the GOP

Extremism depends highly on what you define as normal

Gives it away that "Christian white cis male born in the US" is what they think of as normal.

I wouldn't even deny that in a sense my views on "race" and gender are extremist, even if my first thought was the same.

Like, "it doesn't matter people are individuals" is pretty much by definition on the extreme end.

(Well there's also "it sadly did matter in the past and even if we instantly stopped all racism and sexism the results will linger so we should see what we can do to get closer to actual equality faster" but that seems like a different axis, even if to conservatives it probably seems "more extreme")
