My personal assessment of many in todays world-"If you can't meet the standard, whine loudly, claim your victimhood and they will lower the standard to meet you"
Unfortunately it works for the Democratic Voters
"I'm offended" has become the all-purpose cop out. No need to deal with ideas. Facts and history are irrelevant. The sole criterion is your mental state, that your paper-thin skin has been pierced. You don't want a discussion. You demand a groveling apology and a promise never to be offensive -- i.e., to challenge dogma -- again.
Doesn't this just about nail it where it's at?
