Actually , folks were offended before, many just didn’t believe they had the freedom to [b]say so[/b] without retaliation.
And seriously, unless you’re choosing to remain inside an entitled, privileged bubble, listening to only the traditional mainstream U.S. narrative, you [b]should[/b] be offended by some things that are still happening. That offense makes you an empathetic human being and not a heartless, apathetic piece of crap. 😞

People really are too quick to take offense at every comment nowadays. A few years ago I made an innocent comment that a child was being loud. I only said this after he had been yelling in a screechy voice for 2 hours straight. Well his grandmother overheard me and accused me of making fun of her apparently autistic grandson. All I had said was the kid was loud. Somehow that got twisted into I was making fun of him. 🫤
@Cloud7593 In that case, the grandmother was in the wrong, because you didn't know the kid was autistic. Kids get loud, with or without having something wrong with them. How could you have known?
@Cloud7593 Sounds like she was feeling defensive because [b]she[/b] must’ve known he was being loud. Not sure how a total stranger was supposed to know it was because of autism. 🙁
