        That’s how it always goes. It’s not that I’m offended. Is that it is offensive, objectively. It’s silly.

          Yes, that’s what I’m challenging. Who do people think they are to think their subjective opinion is objective truth?

          It usually goes hand in hand with not justifying themselves because “everyone agrees it’s unacceptable”.

            Sorry I edited my comment to make it clear I agree it’s silly. Nothing is objectively offensive.

          Honestly, if we could wish away people’s mental block with the distinction, people might actually get along. It would be a lot harder to justify hatred if one side isn’t “right”.
