Reacting to someone who outs themselves as a bigot isn’t bigotry. Treating them as bigots in advance, just because of their identity, is bigotry.
Consider this parallel: “I don’t hate all Jews, but I assume they’re evil until proven otherwise.”
Sounds pretty fucking racist, no? And it’s not any less bigoted when applied to other groups.
The majority of Americans are Christian. A minority of Christians are bigots. Do the math.
