Also I agree with your point overall I’m trying to add to it not disagree with you.

I’d argue they are structurally violent: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_violence

I suppose that’s a different term from violence alone, but this concept was defined to handle the expansion in just this kind of discussion.

Good point. I do think the word violence needs to be interpreted potentially more broadly. Someone holding views that they then use to make biased decisions that impact other people materially should count. Example is bias in hiring, promotion, compensation, etc. These material actions I think are part of the concept that should be applied to the word violence. Or we need a broader word like maybe “harm”?
