To: a fool in paradise

Agreed.

But I don’t see this type of thing as a red herring, though, because it applies to a lot of things that liberals seek to destigmatize.

“Convicted of a felony? Not your fault, you have a genetic marker for crime. You should get your voting rights back.”

“Addicted to, or caught using (INSERT DRUG HERE)? Not your fault. You have a genetic marker for that. You shouldn’t lose your job for drinking at work.”

“Didn’t get that job? Not your fault, you have a genetic marker for mental impairment. You will be part of a program that ensures you should go to the front of the line when applying for a job, regardless of how well you interviewed or did on the test.”

Employers are permitted to discriminate against candidates who’ve been looking for work for longer than 6 weeks.

Identity politics only serves those who serve The Party.
