So the takeaway is that when we take power we should do the bad things the previous group in power did?

It's not the same thing.

Judging behaviour and actions is entirely different to judging people for who they are.

People are compiled of their actions and behaviors so I am not really getting what you are trying to say.

Some traits are inherent / congenital, historically these were used to judge and "cancel" people

Still are at times

I dont recall the religious right cancelling people due to their inherent characteristics. On the other hand, the left actively discriminates against people for the same thing.

Oh really? I wonder if a religions have ever used gender to define what roles a person can have and who gets a platform?

I'm not sure if we're just definitely terms differently or you're lacking an understanding of history here.

The religious right has always given a voice to a small number of people and cancelled everyone else

So you are going to point to women cant be head pastors in some churches as indication that they cancel people due to inherent characteristics?
