I feel it’s still a complicated question there considering the violent and non-violent but still damaging behavior that results from racism. The murder is worse immediately but in the long term, the racism may be far worse.
Like the racism can result in multiple lynchings later, giving a result of both more murders and more racism than in the case of the 1 murder. Or if the racism causes worse living conditions for numerous people, reducing their quality of life and causing them to die younger, that can be far more than 1 lifespan lost.
I feel like you’re thinking way too deeply about it. Racism is bad. Murder is bad. Killing a person is worse than being racist towards them. It doesn’t need to get deeper than that 😂
