Just because you don't think you were being racist by doing something does not absolve that action as inherently racist. Intent actually doesn't matter.

I don't entirely disagree with you in a general sense, but sometimes a banana is just a banana.
And yes, of course intent matters, it's just not the singular or major factor to consider.
