Schor is not perpetuating racism. He's assisting antiracism by advising antiracists to avoid counterproductive action.

Hence the Danton reference. Danton (I believe... it's been a while) was insufficiently supportive of extreme actions against the aristocracy. He viewed the Terror as a thing which would eat itself. Robespierre thought otherwise. Neither ultimately did well.
