Activists in the West have of course hypocritically ignored this while seizing on truly trivial mis-speaks, and most armchair SJWs seem to mindlessly gravitate toward Sure Thing punchbags like GL here (as we can see in the comments), and that all goes to show how dedicated *they* are!

      Where did I state it was "unconditional"? Obviously its not going to be literally open to anyone, but to exclude someone for very tame and rational 'opinions' (facts actually) whilst simultaneously claiming to be 'inclusive' is somewhat ironic and hypocritical.
