Don't beat yourself up about your opinions as a high schooler, it's an age where you are very vulnerable to outside inputs, very attached to the opinions of your family (don't know if that's your case at all), and barely have any life experience that can disprove a lot of these ideas in practice. You should feel proud that you managed to realize these issues with your self and fix them instead of letting them fester like so many people do.
