By "selfish discrimination" I think you mean, discrimination (on various characteristics) for selfish reasons (based on what you wrote about selfishness in your polls). No, if someone discriminates against someone else for selfish reasons, I am opposed to that. I want society to be structured so that society overall is better: happy, productive citizens, seeking and finding wisdom. This is an altruist motive.
To get closer to this ideal, it is necessary to structure rewards and punishments to align selfish incentives with the good of all. Many forms of discrimination interfere with that, by rewarding or punishing people based on characteristics that have nothing to do with how much good work those people have done or are capable and willing to do for society.
