It's technically hypocrisy but it's no different than say calling your sister an idiot or a slut or something and then turning around and bashing someone's skull in for saying the same thing if they're not family.

But you see, this example is interesting. Unlike the poster who mentioned the n-word was used among black people as a term for comradery, calling my sister an idiot or a slut is indeed intended to be offensive, even if playfully so.

Maybe for you, and maybe sometimes for me. But when I call a friend an insulting name, usually it's not actually ment to be insulting at all. Basically reclaimed as a pet name or a term of endearment rather than its actual offensive roots.
