I don’t disagree, but in pulp fiction the use of these slurs lends to a pretty accurate portrayal of criminal underworld, and people generally, being very casually racist/homophobic in LA/Long Beach in the late 80s and early 90s. I grew up in that area in that time, and it felt pretty spot on in that movie.
