Maybe it seems that way on the surface.
I see it more of a matter of denial and not wanting to know the truth perhaps and on the surface, yes pigheadness - indeed.
BUT the important thing is I think in this case it's coming from a deeper unawareness and miseducation and lack of education that is not wilful at all.
Ultimately deep down I think most people want the best for others and their bigotry gets in the way, and that is usually down to indoctrination and upbringing.
I've said it before: I think if you take away indoctrination then apart from individuals such as psychopaths and sociopaths deep down people are not cruel. I think it's the bigotry that gets in the way and no one is born bigoted. Religion is one of the biggest reasons for bigotry, it's not the only one but it is a big one.
No one is born bigoted, harm comes from bigotry.
No one is born willfully ignorant or pigheaded, just ignorant in the sense of unaware.
