My brother is a perfect example of this, he is constantly ranting about racism, sexism, etc. but at the same time he loves to ridicule and disparage people(mainly other males) for being "lame", socially awkward, unintelligent, for liking the wrong kinds of shows or movies. I cannot wrap my mind around this.
And in my case, along with many others, my undesirable personality is actually the fault of my peers for socially ostracizing me during my school years when I people normally develop social skills and a personality. But somehow it's my fault and nobody else's. Makes so much sense. Do people even have a moral compass?

I have not read any of the other responses. But in short, it's not fair to judge them for their social awkwardness. Why do you think that it is?
People who judge other people, in general, for anything, are, IMO, jerks with low self esteem and need to make fun of others to feel good about themselves.
No one deserves to be judged for anything, other than an employer judging an employee's work performance or a jury determining the fate of an accused criminal.
I am sorry you are experiencing this kind of judgmentalness in your life. No, it is not fair or right. But some people are jerks. You have to learn that the only opinion you should care about is yours.
Good luck,
