It's not misguided. If no one is harmed, if there is no overt action, then it's simply bigotry or bias not acted on. Not sure why that is such a difficult concept for you to grasp. It was also explained to you that I wasn't referring only to physical harm.
And, yeah, shouting down debate with malicious and false accusations of racism can be pretty harmful. And false accusations actually are harmful to the people you would intend to protect.
