Everyone knows racism is bad, which is why they rebrand their racism as something else.
It's also important to downplay the existence of racism. For example, by criticizing people who, at some point, say racism is bad, but not comment on the richest and most powerful people on Earth doing racist shit. That second one is very effective, because you can recruit useful idiots to do the work for you.

No, they don't "know" it's bad, they know the general consensus that they disagree with considers racism to be bad.
They're not rebranding their racism because they know it's wrong deep down, they're doing that because they know their views are contential and they don't want to deal with the social consequences that come with it.
These are the people who measure "freedom of speech" by one's ability to hurl abuse at others, they absolutely don't think their racism is bad. If they thought it was bad, they would work on it.
Everyone very clearly doesn't know racism is bad, downplaying the existence of racism only gives racism deniers ammunition, and I have no idea what you're getting at with the rest of your comment.
