And furthermore, in conclusion,
if you freak out and cannot handle words like NIGGER and CUNT,
yet still think it's acceptable to say things like
"(enter religion or non religion here) can't be real Americans",
or you laugh at stupid man/stupid woman jokes,
think it's ok to make jokes about Asians being bad drivers,
or in any way think it's acceptable to retaliate to real or imagined racism/discrimination in kind,
you're a very large part of the problem.

You don't get to be overly sensitive about terms and turn around and do the same thing.
Just quit it.
Either none of it bothers you or all of it should bother you,

I wasn't pointing the FINGER OF BLAME at you, specifically.
You only take issue with me using "offensive words" when I do it in a repeated and 12 year old annoying kid manner. Because I have a bad habit of thinking people are funny when they're offended.

Real discrimination based on belief is hard to prevent, as we're wired by our psychological experiences. I might not say or do something about it and I may feel guilty and at times hate myself for it, but there are certain types that I don't like. Precisely because of a negative experience.
