Any version of the N word is a racial slur unacceptable for use by anyone. I don't care that there are a few people trying to make a distinction, they are wrong and if I'm on a board or game where I can they will be reported for racism.

Taking power over an insult is a long-used way of rendering that insult powerless.
Human progress isn't measured by industry. It's measured by the value you place on a life.
Just, be kind.
Cracker was one term for a slave driver because the sound whips made. Slave hands were usually poor white men and probably an indentured servant of the plantation owner. They weren't given much respect by anyone except slaves. They occupied bottom of the social, seen as uncultured hicks only slightly above the black man because of the color of their skin. Slaves picked up on how slave hands were viewed by their employers and made the term synonymous with "low class white person". Its like saying "I know they they don't like me, but they only put up with you because you're not me". Slaves would call the slave drivers 'crackers', to the unknowing slave driver it was just a title, to the slaves it a term of disrespect. They word evolved and black people started to use it as a racial slur for white people but no matter how many you call a white person a 'cracker', as far as racial slurs go, they still aren't a 'nigger'.

My step grandmother came from the redneckiest, white-trashiest family you could find. She called my white mom a "nigger-lover and a host of other things. She wouldn't invite us to family gatherings and got visibly upset when I came over and dared show my non-white face in her presence.
I didn't like her much, and the only reason my grandfather didn't leave her was because his mental health deteriorated in his later years. I kinda wish that she was one of the "funny" ones like your grandfather.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
