How can you look in the mirror if you’re against equal rights? Only bigots and fascists could oppose this!

I don't understand this comment at all. Why would someone not be able to look in the mirror if they're against, say, protections against age discrimination? I'm quite certain the people you dislike don't have any problem with their appearance or 'looking themselves in the mirror'.

My comment is a way of saying that people who don’t support equal rights should be ashamed of themselves. It uses an idiom that is common in American English. It does not mean that they are externally ugly or are compelled by some spell that prevents them from physically looking in the mirror.
