I admire your courage and independence of thought. Canada, despite its history absent mostly of back slavery, is way worse on this. If you want some other stories, look up Wendy Mesley in Canada and you might be interested in the stories of Frances Widdowson.
Good skit! Surprised it was so controversial, as it's really no worse than Louis CK's "n-word" routine.
Some of the kids I work with have obviously never seen a mullet, and now refer to me as "mullet man" because I had, until recently, quite long hair. I've attempted to explain to them that a mullet is short at the front and long at the back, to be met with loud cries of "MULLET MAN! MULLET MAN!"
On a related subject, of course most of the people who get really upset here are 'white progressives'. But if any of them cared to research slavery generally, they would encounter all sorts of anachronistic words that would make them clutch their blessed pearls. As it happens, I am descended from a Caribbean slave (Barbados) who came to what became Canada in 1837, so being partly black, I went to Barbados and did a lot of research work. Every book I read and every will I studied was replete with non-politically correct language.
This was a brilliant auto-da-fé or self-immolation, of sorts. The one chick by her giggle proved she got it. The rest, including the bouncer, must have seethed in silence. That giggle as life-affirming proves there is hope.
I remember the day the "N-word" became a sacred taboo. It was in the headline above the fold in the New York Times and when I saw it, I thought to myself, Uh-oh, here we go. And even though I wasn't clear-pilled at the time, I still noticed the Jewishness of it: how similar it was to the spelling of G-d and the prohibition on saying "Jehovah."

Also, Josh of Disaffected Podcast has addressed this very issue. The word had some strange magic, and needs to be robbed of its power to silence.
This is a famous book in French Canada, and today is all but verboten: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1518400.White_Niggers_of_America
Elvis Costello makes a reference to "white niggers" in his 1979 song "Oliver's Army"

I can only imagine! 😅
