Of course, and stereotypes are not tolerated in many contexts. For example, I'm a white-collar worker and I'm pretty sure that I would have serious problems at every job I ever had if I said or did something racist at work (or even outside of work if it became sufficiently public).

This depends heavily on where in the US you live/work. In the more conservative rural areas racism is tolerated so long as you're not screaming it from the rooftops or wearing it on your sleeve. I have the appearance of someone who most would assume is very conservative so people feel far too comfortable being total racist shitbags around me.
