I'm curious, when confronted by overt sexism, racism, etc, do you ignore it, attempt to make the person self-aware, or attack? What if it's an acceptable form of bigotry according to society? What it is a minor form of bigotry?

Each situation is unique. I'd love to say I always speak up but sometimes it may not be safe to do so, or I may not know what to say. Sometimes I enlist a colleague to speak up if I cannot. Other times I just bookmark the comment and at times yes, I call it out.
@KarynDoc, ya, the scope is a bit wide, with so many subtle nuances that dictate changes in action.
I noticed a post, and my immediate reaction was to be abusive to the bigot, then block, then just block... and that change in my desires for action delayed any action. So currently just ignoring.
What I can't do is find it in any way acceptable.
And I feel anger.

You need to feel what you feel. 100% legit. Also, people may need to hear how they comment is resonating with others. Sometimes that's all it takes.
