    Is there supposed to be some equivalence between being politically progressive and not being discriminatory?

    The way I see it is we’re all equal opportunity assholes, it’s just the context that differs. Ones politics does not make one a paragon of virtue.

      Generally being more aware of something means less ignorant behavior like discrimination. Not a guarantee, but if someone is smart enough to understand racism they should be able to grasp sexisim and so on.

      Again, not a guarantee and there are plenty of people who are progressive about a limited number of topics.
