Reply to comment by namezam in Gritting routes are ‘sexist’ says Cambridgeshire highways chief and ‘must change’ by Bald__egg

You figure out an overlap of demos that AREN'T race/gender/sexuality directly, but which, when combined, effectively equate to a particular race/gender/sexuality and then just say you're focused on the former, not the latter.

Tale as old as time.

It’s called systemic racism for a reason right? Get to do racist things and then say “oh no it’s not racist, it’s just that’s what the system says is best. We’re just trying to be efficient guys! Honest!”
