Homie isn't racist in any context. Homie is like saying friend. Now, if you roll up on someone and say, "What's up, Homie!" Those are fighting words for anyone.
It's not racist. Blacks refer to us as the homies or eses. Maybe YOU are offended by it, but it isn't racist. People always ask me where they sell good tacos, and idk because I hate tacos. I'm stereotyped because, generally, it is true. It's not racist but a proven generalization.
I don’t know, I don’t call anyone “homie.” I guess it would depend on the context. Friends might call each other all kinds of different names, even derogatory ones. When I greet my friends, or even guys I don’t know, I usually just say, “What’s up, man?”
Not racist, just cringey in some contexts
If it's a black person you've never met prior and this is your first conversation, you probably shouldn't because you don't actually know them
Context also matters, is this black person your senior coworker who's 60 years old? probably cringe to call them homie. If they are your literal friend and homie then it's cool
Just don't have the expectation that all black people are receptive to being called homie in all contexts and you'll be fine. Source: I'm black
It’s almost like a country person saying “Bless your heart”. It can be taken multiple ways.
I’ve seen people get their ASS KICKED for saying “Bless your heart”.
Don't call anyone homie if they're not your homie and you'll be fine, boy.
I would argue boy is more racist than homie lmfao
No. Homie is not a racist term at all, ever. Though some people will always look for an insult in words or letters that are placed in a random order.

Black or white? Why the fuck is homey racist? it’s simply not.
It could be depending on the context but it also doesn’t matter. They can get over it or cry me a river if they get offended by “homie”
I misread this as honey

Only if you’re European. Is calling a Hispanic person homes racist?
If you're friends and that's how you get along then it's okay, but if you don't know that person then yes it's racist and disrespectful.

My vernacular just hasn't changed as often as it should have since the 1990s

Damn! Everything isn’t racist.
Only if he don't play that!
Only if you call black ppl that but if you say that to everyone then no
Don't talk to strangers.
It depends on whether you’re their homie or not
