Being Offended

I'm seeing more and more stuff like this article. It seems like the silent majority is slowly realizing that the whole SJW construct is hollow.

Harrumphing “that offends me!” has no bearing on any argument, pro or con. It’s a non sequitur revealing naught but a delicate constitution.

It’s now very common to hear people say, “I’m rather offended by that,” as if that gives them certain rights. It’s no more than a whine. It has no meaning, it has no purpose, it has no reason to be respected as a phrase.

This is basically why I voted for Trump.
Because him being President was going to blow up the entire culture of being offended.

I have been saying for a while that this whole "I am offended" thing being some kind of trump card is total fricking bullshite.

This 3-minute YouTube video will change your mind about getting offended: LINK. And if it doesn't, then I'm offended by that.

Time to return to the old standard: Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.

Great book.

Ten years ago the phrase " you have no right to not be offended" was repeated on this board and through the broader society constantly. And now that self- evident wisdom is completely foreign to millions of young Progs, pillaging through our societal values like they are getting paid overtime.
