Fair enough with the first two.
> An anti-science agenda is policy. You can't be accepted as a Republican unless you go against science on at least climate change, for example.
There are many examples of sitting republicans such as Mark Kirk, Bob Corker, Michael Grimm, Susan Collins, Lamar Alexander, Chris Smith, John Thune, Rodney Frelinghuysen and likely more who are are card-carrying Republicans, elected as Republican and acknowledge 'at least climate change'. It's not mandatory.
They are to the extent they hit some groups harder than others, and especially to the extent they disenfranchise those who tend to not vote Republican.
> Republicans are probably the loudest integration proponents and seem to demand an unreasonably fast integration of (Spanish-speaking) immigrants.
Setting an unreasonably high bar for doing something is a great way to prohibit it.
> Even if some members spew anti-science agenda
No. An anti-science agenda is policy. You can't be accepted as a Republican unless you go against science on at least climate change, for example.
