You are right that it's wrong any time and grounds for firing. You are wrong that its not worse directed at someone. There, it's deliberately designed to hurt that person.
In this case, knowing what's come out about Peters' mind games, and power trips, it fits the pattern. He might not even be a racist at heart - he might just have chosen the word that would do the most damage. Which is terrible too.
