My problem playing Valorant with Friends

Ever Since my Cousin introduced me into his friends that he knows personally and i don't, I have a weird feeling that his friends may also have the same exact personalities as him (i don't judge though).

After playing a few games as a 5-stack and i happen to get along with them pretty well, they have exciting personalities and have funny humor but something was always off with them. As i kept playing with them for the past year, know i knew how awful they had became.

They are racists, homophobics and anti-LGBTQ+ and this triggers me, i remember playing with them in a game of valorant a few weeks back where they use the word 'gay' as an insult to whoever plays bad in the enemy team or in our team. And if they happen to die or fail in a play the planned, they immediately just say the n-word a lot of times as if they never really did care about it, I was getting annoyed so badly that sometimes i play with them i just mute them all. Speaking of Racism/Homophobia, they invited me to a 10-man customs where everyone in both teams can speak to each other thanks to party voice chat. The Conversations and Topics were triggering me at utmost, Anytime Something bad happens to either teams, they just scream the N-Word Really loud and if they happen to die someone, they just scream either "Gay" or "Fag". After these months into 2022, i'm starting to enjoy less playing with them, Fortunately, I found a new Group in League of Legends that aren't Racist/homophobic and i quite enjoy playing with them as well. Just a Quick comparison is that my friend group in Valorant are around 13-15 years old compared to my league group that is 18-21

Maybe it's just age range that i play with or is it just their natural thing on being a kid to be homophobic/racist?

Does anyone else experience this playing with their friends or is it just me?
