I’m pretty sure some people enjoy being sexist/racist and some even get off of watching people being sexist/racist. However, there are people in both groups who also understand it’s a problem and stand against it, except with consent in private.
Comment on Does people doing things that upset others also upset you?

Neither sexism nor racism needs to be active hate towards someone. If you just absentmindedly select a white person for s job, you might not even be aware you did it nor do you need to hate the black applicant.
