Yes, it's cringe because it's said as a laughing matter and can have no consequences nowadays or it mostly doesn't.
I used to think this way too before and I am still not liberal but the thing with racism is, the start might be jokes but once it's systematic because "nobody cares it's just jokes" those same words might start to hit differently.
The liberals can be overreaching about such matters, but I personally think racial slurs shouldn't be tolerated a lot.

This is just my 2 cents on the subject.
