It's gotten to the point that my first and ongoing assessment of someone is how "cool" they are. Sort of the identity politics version of whether you're the type of person who yells at a waiter. In my experience about 75% of people are cool.

If you're cool, I'm candid around you. If you're not cool, I'm treating you like you're radioactive. Everything I say is carefully considered. Controversy of any kind is studiously avoided. Most likely I avoid dealing with you at all when I can, and certainly avoid being alone with you with no witnesses. If that's sexist or racist I really don't give a damn.
