I understand that the kind of people that fall for this stuff tend to be horrible in other ways, don't get me wrong, but I guess I still find it hard not to find some amount of sympathy for anyone, even if I find them detestable. People aren't born being bigoted, and while it's absolutely understandable to hate people for thinking and acting that way, I certainly do myself, I'm not sure to what extent I can really see it being a choice. Like, what kind of person, who both understood what bigotry was and was not already in the grip of it, would actively choose it? I feel like those kinds of views are something one is taught, and once taught are difficult to unteach, because part of what they are involves suspicion against anyone that has a contrary message. Like the concept of garbage in ->garbage out that people use with computers, but applied to people instead.
