Constitutional Protection for Political Party Affiliation

What’s happening? California Republican has filed SB 238 (2021 | CA), the Diversity in Thought Act seeks to protect political affiliation as a protected class.

Why is this important? Cancel Culture is getting its backlash. The Republican author of this bill said, ““It is unfathomable to me that corporations and members of the public would ruin a person’s career, business and family because of their political ideology,” 

How will this be important? Partisan division is at an all time high and people feel like they should be able to express every thought and opinion. The other side in California is saying ““racist, pro-domestic terrorism, xenophobic, misogynistic views do not warrant protection ‘from discrimination.’”

This is starting to sound like two 4 year olds screaming- I’m rubber, you’re glue, whatever I say bounces of me and sticks to you.
