Prejudice of Prejudice of others
Is there a word that for describing aspersing someone else with a prejudice?
Eg they are all racists.
I appreciate that prejudice or bigot is correct but somehow it doesn't quite suffice.

This isn't clear. Do the words you rejected not work because you're looking for a verb rather than a noun? (But that wouldn't explain your second sentence.) Why have you rejected the words you have?

Let me explain further, if my prejudice is that Jason is a racist; is there a word I can use to describe my prejudice? On the one hand it is simply a prejudice of other people's prejudices but that doesn't seem to do the iniquity justice. Is there a more specific word to describe this sort of prejudice? If not, does anyone know if there is a character in a novel who exhibits this sort of bigotry so that I can use his name to express what I'm trying to say?

But why would you think I was a racist? It could simply be an error in judgment—or it could be a reasonable conclusion (false or not) based on observation. But if it's also based on prejudicial assumptions, why must we distinguish one level from the next? Also, in your comment you just said if my prejudice. Given that you used that word, isn't it appropriate? Or, forgetting about prejudice specifically, are you looking for a word to describe the phrase the pot calling the kettle black? Something like hypocritical?

Hi Jason ... yes I'm looking for something like the pot calling the kettle black but this doesn't seem to bear the iniquity of what I'm trying to express. It's not mere hypocrisy but a vicious form of hypocrisy.
