If your friend accidentally said a racial slur (pretend your friend is not of the race/ethnicity/sexual orientation, etc... that the slur belongs), would you see that as a sign of "hidden" racism on their part? What if it was under legitimate means (For example: Trying to distinguish the word from the little known, non-racist, word "*********," which means ungenerous/miserly)? And what if it wasn't under (what you would deem) as legitimate means?
What if, instead of a friend, it was a general acquaintance? Would your view of them be different than had it been a friend?
This is a psychology & sociology topic that I thought I'd ask here.
