I'm in Canada, and seeing that word in a fic makes me feel like one of the characters just up and SLAPPED the other. Outside of fic, I have NEVER personally seen that word used as anything other than a viciously hateful insult.

"Feared in North America" for good reason, I'd say. It's nothing but a slur to me.
