    We’re just using racial slurs now? Come on, that’s over the line.

      I don’t think that’s a racial slur my guy, a dictionary indicates it’s slang for female genitalia.

        I believe they’re referring to the use of Uncle Thomas, which while perhaps semantically appropriate is definitely a racially charged moniker.

          There’s a pretty big difference from a racial slur and a racial moniker that is only acceptable for people of that race to use as an accusation of betraying the community.
