Is it really possible that people can be this misogynist in 2020? And you're raising kids that way?

An argument can be made that more primitive cultures are less tolerant, and that economically advanced cultures teach tolerance.
PS: above assumes you are using the colloquial meaning of misogyny, akin to toxic male culture putting women in the kitchen and bedroom, rather than the psychological definition of misogyny that results from a trauma early by a female. If the latter, then you are right, it is a learned behavior and it is a women's fault.

I am saying that no is born fearing women, or homosexual people, or fair skinned people, or green eyes people, etc. etc. They learn this behavior from their primitive culture or their economically advanced culture or whatever culture teaches it to them

Your claim is unsubstantiated and is part of the ongoing nature vs. nurture debate.
We do know that people have instinctive sense of self-preservation/perpetuation, and that most people have fear of the unknown. The first time a person is exposed to something wildly different from their existing mental model they are scared. Yes the mental model is learned, but the fear is primal. Our society has taught us to normalize homosexuality, which is a very good thing, but other societies have not made that leap. It's still up for discussion which culture reflects primal instinct vs. learned behavior. Just because you value something so deeply doesn't make it true.
Humans are really not as kind a species as we make ourselves out to be. When resources become scarce, or threats are perceived as real, our tribal instincts return and we become vicious.

Parents and care givers are very influential in these attitudes kids learn. The kids in my preschool class dont even focus on skin color or gender as anything other then discriptive. "That kid has long hair, that kid has pink skin., Etc.". The judgements associated with these superficial attributes come later as kids grow up and are taught prejudicial views or not.
