Was it used that commonly like that back then?

If yes, I think it would be racist to pretend it was not like that.

No. He was telling a story with racists in it, not endorsing their views.

Are authors not allowed to accurately depict the language used during the time period that their story takes place?

Yeah, it'd diminish the impact if he chose words that didn't fit within the context... like when Goku sees his friends get murdered and responds with "darn you!" It doesn't work.

If anything, I think he enjoys emphasizing how foolish racists really are.
