According to Merton's typologies of behavior, the prejudiced nondiscriminator and prejudiced discriminator are both classified as "bigots." The prejudiced nondiscriminator may not have conscious negative attitudes towards a particular group, but still discriminates against them based on unconscious biases. The prejudiced discriminator, on the other hand, actively holds negative attitudes towards a particular group and discriminates against them openly. Both typologies exhibit prejudice and discrimination towards a certain group, which classifies them as "bigots."
