Offensive language serves a purpose- without it we have no measure for what is tolerable. It’s good to get offended - it means you care about something. It’s good to have that ability. And learning how to deal with getting offended builds character.
Instead of removing the offense we learn how to manage our emotions in response to it.
The more I hear about such things I realize the Left has a fundamentally different approach to life in general, from the Right. The Left chooses to eliminate or avoid unpleasant experiences while the Right fortifies and faces them.
One builds strength and maturity- the other weakness and immaturity.
