I am with you on this. I am a recruiter for a large tech company in Seattle and with the recent political environment, I have asked my team to take it upon themselves to ask if the person they are going to bring into our team and our community is going to help us progress as a whole. I get angered when people tell me to look at just their CV, but there is so much more there. If I know that someone on their Facebook profile liked some Alt-Right podcast or calls themselves a "Libertarian" on their Twitter profile, I know that there is a good chance that they are not going to work well in an inclusive environment. So I save us both the trouble and move past the candidate.

We have an obligation to stand up for our beliefs if we are going to see the change we need.
