I will never vote for another white, straight, cis, Christian male ever again.

Biden will be the last one.

...Because racism and sexism is okay when you do it?

Minorities, POC and LGBT are far more likely to assure our country stays secular than the others.

You assume. Beforehand. Also known as prejudice.

Tim Tex is himself White, Male, cis, and may well be Christian. So your question doesn't make any sense.

But I agree with you that he is being prejudiced - if he refuses to vote for politicians just because they have those traits (even if he has all of those same traits himself). But I don't live in Texas like he does.

Sure it does. Discriminating against members of your own sex on that basis is still sexism, and discriminating against members of your own race on that basis is still racism.
