Why would anyone marry a person who openly hates women, minorities, LGBTQ+, and anybody they deem different?

Are you trying to imply that the people you disagree with politically - presumably those to the right of center - all fit into the cartoon caricature you just painted? The things you listed aren't even political issues but social ones.

You're right, there is a huge chunk of right of center people who hate women and minorities but keep their opinions behind closed doors. How could OP have lumped them with those who are open about those opinions!

Zealots have zero appreciation for nuance in life.

Everyone who has an opinion that doesn't match theirs 100% is a Nazi that should put into a fema camp staffed by Obama death panels. That's the only solution tbh

Because one or the other person in the relationship isn't being honest which happens quote frequently. People in relationships lie by omission all the time.

In a relationship, sure. In a marriage? Can't help to fault them for not finding out.

My wife lied about who she was and what she wanted from me for 20 years before she started fucking another guy... She even managed to hide that from me for a few months, and continued to try to hide it as I figured out what was going on... I ended up having to talk to the guy (because of course it was someone we both knew) to get confirmation- and I thought it had only just started, he's the one who told me it had been going on for months. He said she told him we were already separated, just living in the same house to keep things stable for the kids... He seemed genuinely distressed and apologetic to find out that wasn't true, and from my wife's change in demeanor afterwards, I think he broke it off with her, though she was still trying to stay close to him, under the guise of letting our kids play together... But I suspect even that's stopped now, based on what I hear from our daughter... Sounds like she's latched onto another guy she works with... Which is how we met way back when... And she still hasn't filed the divorce papers, she started working on it back in March... At this point I'm going to beat her to it, I've been talking to a couple lawyers...
