Look at something written 500 years ago. 100 years ago. 50 years ago. Language changes all the time, and there is no stopping that. Yep, language is an endless cycle of switching out common words and adapting to social rules. I'd highly reccommend to follow that flow instead of trying to bring back the "good old days" when n-words and r-words were common and accepted.
