A test of character? As in, "Are you the kind of person who can be tenacious enough to work under a manipulative bigot?" I'm trying hard to see your point of view, despite the baiting.

It's not baiting, in the wonderful world of work, you can expect to be on the receiving end of such comments. I speak from a position of experience.

So the CEO fostered such a culture from literally the start of his interview. It was a warning, that the CEO was racist and not a place to work at.

In the wonderful world of work, these comments/questions are absolutely, unquestionably, without a doubt, inappropriate and should never happen.
