If people had to stop doing something, just because someone somewhere was offended by it, we'd still be sitting in mud huts eating bugs and leaves.
Sure, but some things are more major and more blatant. After someone comes in and says they find a questionable term offensive, then they are belittled for it, then leave the thread over it.... that doesn't really fit into what you just said. If that happened in person and the same was done you'd also be OK with that?
Your realization forced my realization of the same thing.
It's just another step in the pussification of society.
People need to realize they have the right to NOT be offended.
Really? What a bunch of bullshit.
