Writing a character using the word isn't exactly inherently "racist", but the problem is that it is a boundary that people of color ask us, as white creators, to respect. Whether or not something is racist, I think it is responsible of us to listen to the people in the affected demographic and respect that boundary through our characters as well. 

Instead, I would encourage you to think about why exactly you want a character to be saying that-- what emotional effect do you want that to have on your audience, or what do you want to be saying about the character who would use that word? Chances are, there is a way to establish those effects in another way that is both more impactful and still respects the boundaries of POC.

Okay, okay. 

I was just wondering - I know that nowadays people are... a little too sensitive, but that "sensivity" is often fake - just to have others believe that you care; while they don't. 

And that anything that could be considered racist, or at the very least stereotyped,  would be met with a major backlash, mostly from Twitter stans. Why? Just because. Just to act like "guardian of purity and justice", while it is just a show to create drama. 

To be honest... I don't even want to imagine how controversial the older episodes of "Tom & Jerry" would be if they were emitted nowadays - with some many stereotyping looks and behaviors that could easily offended some. 

If that was the case, I'd rather not to risk - I did have some created segment about that... But while writing, I'm not sure if that's worth it

As someone also in a position of racial privilege, I understand that it is not fun to feel like you are being limited on behalf of unspoken opinions. But the reason they are unspoken is because people in marginalized groups do not always have the same comfort to speak out against privileged people when those same privileged people have, as a pattern throughout history, reacted in ways ranging from inconsiderate to genocidal. You don't have the perspective to understand the discomfort associated with trying to do that, while not knowing where on the scale that reaction is going to land. In writing these boundaries off as a fault of "Twitter stans" you are deflecting responsibility for your role in begrudging these relatively trivial boundaries, and thus contributing to the lack of trust between the POC community and white-privileged people.

But given that this has ventured from a genuine question about social graces (or lack there of) to something resembling complaint about having to abide by them, I'm going to lock this now before this escalates any further now.
