I'm a lot more 'racist' online than I am IRL, so if I'm anything to go by then racism online is not a true representation of the level of racism in society. I think a lot of online racist remarks are gratuitous snipes at the politically correct establishment which has restricted freedom of speech in the outside world; people blow off their general anger at feeling hamstrung by the system by being outlandishly offensive.
