It's perfectly fine to say that anyone who believes the earth is flat has little value to offer to anyone, and that their opinions should be discounted across the board.
And I'm suggesting that bigotry is wrong whether it harms the bigot or not. It's extra stupid if it harms the bigot, but it's wrong even in the sadly common case where it does not.
