I do begrudge people expecting everyone else to fall in line with their choices
To be clear… “people” weren’t involved in making “everyone” do what they said. ONE person highlighted ONE t-shirt to the boss of ONE company. The boss agreed it was offensive.
The little picture of text heavily implied that everyone should fall in line with the person who wrote it.
I just don’t get why your right to offend someone is more important to you than the fact that you might be offending someone.
Speech that is offensive is much more important to protect than non-offensive speech, as offensive speech is the only speech that is questioned anyway. Again, bringing this to Star Trek, many of the ideas then were considered offensive at the time, women wrote in saying they didn’t like the female first officer in “The Cage”! Did they change to stop causing offense? They got rid of the female first officer, but it didn’t change their mindset.
