Everyone is entitled to be offended for whatever reason at anytime whether they fully acknowledge or understand the concepts or fundemental principles of what they are being offended by.
And since most people have the inability to objectively assess and interpret what ever so-called socially constructed bane on our existence is, we must therefore be enlightened with soundbites that fit correctly into our social structure that leave us feeling content and informed, even if that is not the case.
The word racism fit wonderfully into this context, as do others such as democracy, global warming and conspiracy theory.
