It’s just words on an internet platform. And the offended are just people who are upset. Lots of people are upset at lots of things. There’s no duty for a platform to play referee for these complaints.
I’m sick of the offended. Sincerely, Fuck The Offended. Being offended isn’t a special quality. It doesn’t confer any gravitas or rights. You don’t like something? Don’t look at it. Or tell the person you’re offended. I doubt the offender will give a shit, as he probably intended to offend and by carping at him you’re just giving him what he wants. But if ignoring the offender isn’t enough for you, well, that’s your alternative. Have at it.
But don’t infect my news feed with stories about how offended you are, or try to ban people from offering their offending views to the rest of us who may not be offended by them. I don’t fucking care about the offended. And when they demand attention for being offended, they’re making themselves into something far worse than offensive: Irritating. And when they seek to censor what I can view on a platform, they’re fucking with the quality and quantity of content. That entitles me, IMO, to kick their actual IRL asses. …If only that were possible.
