The issue, which you can’t seem to grasp, is that context matters.
No, it’s not OK to call someone the N word as a pejorative. I never said it did. But the word itself can be used in a nonracist manner.
“I hate when people say the word n!gger”
“The reason he was mad is because someone called him a n!gger”
These are examples. The word can be used in an academic or reference purpose, or to accurately relay what another person said.
It can also be said in reference to musical lyrics, or when speaking lines from a script.

STOP. You're trying to build up all of these strawman scenarios.
Under no circumstances is it ok for you as a white person to refer to a black person as the n-word, even as you illustrated in your examples. You can't say I hate when people say the n-word and then use the n-word. You would sound racist and stupid.
Just say the n-word, people will know what you are talking about.
It's not difficult.
