America's unique brand of identity politics is simply 21st century cultural Marxism. Karl would be elated that race, ethnicity, and sexual orientation are leveraged in yet another struggle against the white bourgeoisie's relentless "accumulation of wealth in private hands, [and] the formation and increase of capital."
From the Weekly Standard we read:
In order to make sure gays and lesbians are adequately represented on the judicial bench, the state of California is requiring all judges and justices to reveal their sexual orientation. The announcement was made in an internal memo sent to all California judges and justices.
"[The Administrative Office of the Courts] is contacting all judges and justices to gather data on race/ethnicity, gender identification, and sexual orientation," reads an email sent by Romunda Price of the Administrative Office of the Courts.
"Providing complete and accurate aggregate demographic data is crucial to garnering continuing legislative support for securing critically needed judgeships," Price writes.
Philip R. Carrizosa of the executive office of communications at the Judicial Council of California, the Administrative Office of the Courts, confirmed the authenticity of Price's email regarding gender identification and sexual orientation to THE WEEKLY STANDARD.
"The original bill, which simply provided for 50 new judgeships, was amended in the Assembly in August 2006, to address concerns that Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger was not appointing enough women and minorities to the bench. In 2011, Senator Ellen Corbett [the Democratic majority leader in the California State Senate] expanded the reporting requirement to include gender identification and sexual orientation."

I think all animals would have to be included in order to avoid charges of discrimination. I know gerbils would have to be included. That's a given. Anyway, I guess this request from the state also requires judges to reveal if they're into little boys? That's a "sexuality".
California. lol
RE: For a moment, I thought this was The Onion or Semi-satire News.
You just can’t make this thing up. Sometimes, truth is stranger than fiction, especially in the (what used to be) great state of California.
Sorry, stuck keyboard.
When I saw the headline, I thought “Why is that? To make sure one is perverted enough?” I mean, after all we are talking about California.
Can’t believe I was exactly right !!!
