Or supposing an atheist group pushes hard for secularization, and the result is that particular religious groups are actually harmed, their lives get worse. Then that's bigotry? I don't think so. Even if the consequences are bad for the religious group.

Truth has to be part of the story here. Suppose I refuse point blank to believe the wilder metaphysical claims of Furries, and the result is that Furries are marginalized, then it's hard to think the refusal in and of itself is bigoted.

I didn’t say something is bigotry if and only if it has a bad impact. I said good intentions are compatible with bigotry and furthering oppression.

Hmmmm. You actually said: "Luckily we already know that it’s impact, not intention, that matters." - which certainly suggests that bigotry needs to have a bad impact. But limitations of Twitter, etc., I guess.
