I wouldn't hire [...] a racist as a human resource manager.

Nearly all jobs involve interacting with other people, who may be of the race that the racist would have a problem with. Would you be willing to hire a racist for any such job?

Crazy opinions for say graphic artists are not very surprising or very problematic.

What classifies jobs into this group where crazy opinions aren't a big deal?
