So, in case you didn’t know, this is literally like textbook fascist argument.

Rather than people being good or bad based on their actions, you’re good or bad based on who you are.

This is why during the “grab 'em by the pussy” stuff Trump was painted as a good guy who did a few bad things, like saying some off-color stuff on tape.

This is also why you’ll hear certain people say something like “That Bill Cosby, what a shame. Sure thought he was one of the good ones…”

…so you can come to your own conclusions about what type of person you have to be to be considered good or bad in the fascist world view…

…or actually I’ll just say it. If you’re a white Christian male you’re predetermined to be good in the fascist world view. Everyone else is predetermined to be bad… or perhaps has to earn being good until even the slightest of mis-steps proves they were exactly who the fascists thought they were… (not that what Bill Cosby did was a slight mis-step, mind you).

Same reason laws are enforced more harshly on minorities.
