I got told off by a white liberal for talking about how the police have historically ignored Paki-bashing. Even though I was deliberately using the language the cops themselves use. She said I shouldn't say Paki, that I was 'internalising the racism' or some other nonsense.
This despite it being the slur I've been called by white people since the aged of 3 and in 90% of the fights I've gotten into out clubbing, parties or wherever.
Honestly, sometimes I get so weary.
