Like people have stopped using all other derogatory words?
Clearly, from my previous post, that word has had non-derogatory and non-hateful purposes. If it's branded like that, nowadays, it's because there's been a drive to consider it as such. If that has happened, then the opposite can also happen, if enough people decide to do so.
