Both you and the bigot, however, are simply dancing to your DNA.
Supporting the bigot in his wrongness does not make bigotry acceptable.
Many may agree with you and that is awesome!
But think deeply about it....
Some may think being a bigot is wrong....sure....
Some may agree with you.
Some may think being a bigot is just the best thing to be in the world!
Some may enjoy picking at people and making fun of people. It in fact is done a lot nowadays. It might make them feel good about themselves. And since such a person determines what is meaningful and good in their life, then they are simply living how they think they should spend the few years given to them by nature.
What is acceptable is completely determined by each individual. One may think it acceptable to lie and steal so long as they do not get caught. You may think it unacceptable.
Ultimately, you are neither better or worse of than they.
