      No, it’s a qualitative difference if a member of an oppressed group is bigoted against one of the oppressing group, or the other way around.

        Yes, but insisting on calling it bigotry instead of racism rarely makes a difference and frequently causes unnecessary arguments with people who are using the other definition of racism. If it’s necessary to discuss institutional racism or whatever else, then just specify that.
