bigots' "reasons" to be bigots aren't really reasons, they're smoke screens. Against my better judgment I argued with many in the past, with one particular person I managed to take the conversation to a logical conclusion, after hours of disassembling their baseless arguments there was just one left - "i don't like them they disgust me". Facts over feelings my ass. I believe this is at the core of all bigoted ideas - fear that then transforms into resentment and disgust, that then gets dressed up in all manner of reasons and arguments so they can feel justified in feeling that way
