Q: What Are Three Ways COBOL is Like White Supremacist Republicans?

1.  Both have been around for decades, running behind the scenes.

2.  Despite the addition of sleek, public-facing interfaces, behind the scenes both are still around and still going strong.

3.  Elon Musk arrogantly presumed he knew how both of them worked, but never actually had a clue, leading him to make big, stupid, public fuck ups.

"Both have been around for decades, running behind the scenes"
As have government employees, for the most part trying their best, with no glory or validation, while getting increasingly disparaged for the past 50 years.
