Does no one know the difference between bigotry and racism?

A bigot is a prejudiced person who is intolerant of opinions, lifestyles or identities differing from his or her own.
Racism refers to various belief systems maintaining that humans can be separated into various groups based on physical attributes and that these groupings determine or influence cultural or individual achievement or the essential value of human beings.

bigotry is someone who hates everyone not like him, this could be sex, skin color, occupation, religion, whatever....racism is strictly about the color of skin, which is ridiculous because we all have the same type of pigment in our skin, some are just genetically darker than others.....still human though, although bigots and racists are not so human to me
