Sorry, I figured from your post history that you are from an english-speaking country.

The term isn't "weener", it's "wiener": https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/wiener

The point still stands: If you don't see discrimination against a certain group of people as something bad, using discriminatory terms isn't a statement but just a thing people do without thinking.

I think it can be spelled a few different ways, "weener" is the one I come across the most

That's because americans have difficulty spelling/pronouncing foreign words.
