"Holding people's speech hostage"? You are free to say whatever you want to say. Likewise, I am free to say whatever I want to say, including my opinions about what you said. |
Why is one no longer okay but the other is fine? |
But 'll will be labled "offensive" or "cruel" by you. People are easily marked now as racist or sexist for the smallest comment, so yes, I agree it's like holding your tongue hostage. |
| But pp^ will be labled-sorry phone |
Oh no! Why do you care what I think? |
Not pp, but I don’t!!! That’s why I don’t hang around with people with your mindset. |
Why do you care about what someone else says?. |
People like you are so aggravating. Do you have any friends? Non imaginary ones. |
+1000. It's just more proof of how privileged people are; not everyone was lucky enough to be born into your over privileged little world. Y'all need to check it. |
Here is the argument. 1. People who take offense at non-offensive things are stupid. 2. I can't say non-offensive things lest those stupid people who take offense at non-offensive things take offense. That doesn't make sense. |
No. Neither of those are offensive. |
Poke a stick in your eye so that you have a real problem to worry about. |
And now you've offended chickens! |

It's offensive to people who've starved. I never thought babies were cute because of their healthy baby fat, until I met an Ethiopian baby who'd been flown to the US and was literally, starving to death. She had no baby fat.
After walking out of the hospital the next time I saw a healthy, fat baby I cried. It changed how I interpret the word "starving" and I don't let my daughter say it anymore. |
| I mean, I probably wouldn't say it in front of a group of homeless people. But offensive? Not really. |
