I think it’s more disgusting and disrespectful than offensive. Similarly, I’m half Asian and I don’t really like jokes about Asians or Filipinos but again, they aren’t “offensive” unless directed at me somehow.
If they're making a positive or benign statement and they use a slang term because it's easier than using the formal term, I figure that's in the realm of the justifiable
Btw, the krauts have a moniker for US Americans: Ami. There used to be graffiti with "Ami go home" during the occupation.
It's still not a very negative word in Germany, more like a nickname.
