Are you able to even define what a "bigot" is? You throw the term around a lot... presumably you know what it means. Lets hear it.
Bigot-intolerance toward those who hold different opinions from oneself. Liberals love to call others bigots in hopes of silencing and discrediting. What could be more bigoted than liberal's political correct speech and thought enforcement?

Thank you for making my point... the person I was responding to is apparently afraid to step up and speak the truth. But your statement is spot on... this deranged notion that 'bigotry' (now defined as 'those who disagree with me or hurt my feewings') is ONLY on 1 side of the political aisle is complete nonsense. But try getting the Left to admit that... they'd rather have a collective root canal.

Would you describe someone as a bigot who asked why blacks can move into their neighborhood, country and Contenent?? Or someone who is against inter-racial marriage because they have a problem with "race mixing" as they call it. Would that person qualify as a bigot??

When they, in effect, need a collective colonoscopy.

You have the right to an opinion, someone else has the right to say that opinion is bigoted. See how that works??

Maybe... maybe not. Can someone have a bigoted or prejudiced view about something without acting on it? Sure, happens all the time. If they don't act on it, are they a bigot? Is an opinion enough to call someone a bigot? Or do they have to act on it?

More to the point, no involvement of race, gender, <insert currently popular Leftist victim collective here> is required for bigotry to exist. You may see it there more often, as it's more obvious, but pure bigotry is simple obstinance about one's own beliefs at the exclusion of all others. It doesn't have to involved race at all. And with that in mind, who is not a bigot?

Use of accusations of bigotry and racism as a means to shut down debate and shame those with heterodox views into silence, yes, I see that all the time. But I don't think it's working as well as it once did.

And liberal opinion is often bigotry.

Forcing white nations only to be increasingly multiracial, less white and more 'diverse', forcing people to associate and live and do business with others they'd rather not for various reasons, telling people they can't not be for inter-racial marriage is not jut bigotry but bigotry put in motion.
