Bigotry normally hurts the targets more than the perpetrators, but sometimes bigotry can prove to be just as detrimental, if not more so, to the bigots themselves. Said detriment could come in multiple forms, with monetary loss, losing potential allies, and making unnecessary enemies being some of the more common consequences. While some bigots might be willing to put aside their bigotry out of convenience or pragmatism, others will disregard even the most basic of common sense simply out of prejudice.
