What does BIGOT mean in Scrabble?
noun
A person who is intolerant of opinions, beliefs, or people different from their own, especially regarding race, religion, or politics.
A bigot refuses to consider that another race, religion, or set of beliefs might have any merit, and often reacts to disagreement with hostility rather than argument. The word carries a strong negative judgment; calling someone a bigot is itself a serious criticism of their character. Unlike simple prejudice, being a bigot implies a stubborn refusal to reconsider, no matter what evidence or experience is offered.
