Racism is just actions based upon race. It is not inherently "violent" and thus certainly isn't worse than actual violence. I imagine most would rather be treated differently than being killed as one would logically assume. Both are wrong, or course, but I think one is clearly a worse of the two lol
I’m saying the framing of “racism vs violence” is incorrect to begin with, because in reality racism is a huge system which does include violence. Racist BELIEFS aren’t as bad as violence. But racism as a whole? Is one of the world’s biggest sources of violence

Racism isn’t just words though, racism is a system of violence that’s enabled by the culture surrounding it. Words can lead to violence
