A word that is often used to refer to racists, sexists, etc. But really just means anyone shallow, selfish, spiteful, unforgiving, and who generally has their head up their ass. Racists and homophobes are not necessarily "hateful". The word you're looking for is "bigot".

Hateful people should be tolerated and forgiven, not hated.

hateful

An adjective used to describe an absurdly heinous act/condition/law, usually perpetrated by a malevolent or indifferent force (such as a God or the DMV), against a member of the universe who is just trying to live their life & keep their shit together.
