I'm following your logic here, what little there is. You say that the use of the word Negro, meaning black, to describe a product that is black, is disgraceful, intolerant, and racist. So, it follows that use of a degrading term (ie. Paddy) in any context, even it's correct usage, should be frowned upon.
Anyway, what's the difference? Racism is Racism, Isn't it? What's the difference between oppression of people of African descent, and people of Celtic descent?
Or is it that you're just one of these knee-jerk PC muppets, who wants to bubble wrap the world in case some poor unfortunate bumps their toe?
And we equate one thing
to another, not between.
