There IS actually a better equivalent to the N-word than 'Dirty Jew'.
It's Yids. Yes, as in Yid(s), which is actually an affectionate nickname for someone who is a fan of Tottenham Hotspurs (a north London professional football team, which traditionally had a large number of Jewish fans). Because opponent teams originally teased the team as Yids, the fans voluntarily took up the name Yid with pride. We had a few incidents whether the term Yids Army (collective term for Spurs fans) is considered racist/anti-Semitic.
Though I admit the context won't be easily understood unless you live here.

Well, here's another good example:
The term "zhido-banderovets" has been proudly co-opted by patriotic Ukrainian Jews. Obviously a non-Jew would be wrong to say the word "zhid" or any term including it.
