    Lots of awful things are frowned upon hard; that doesn't make them no longer a "factor" in causing harm.

Do you think I was suggesting that the frowning itself somehow makes racism not a factor, instead of say, its effects on (racist) people's behaviour?

Besides, very few white people are actually racist, so their effect is marginal anyway.

I'm afraid to ask about your "fascist tendencies".. :p
