    Ad-Man-Gamer got a reaction from SnakeEater in The Problem With Linus Joking at others expense   
    I tend to find most people that get offended over jokes on other's behalf don't actually care about you as a person, as they just see the people with X as heterogeneous groups.

    It just seams like they are out for the endorphin high their world view grants them when standing up for people with X they think of as weaker in one way or another. When someone with X Informs them that "offence on their behalf is not wanted, thanks." they get angry, lash out, and treat you like you are an uneducated peasant.

    It is the bigotry of low expectations, and it is even more vile than straight up ignorance. It gets candy coated as the right thing to do, leaving most people to just go along with it for goodness’ sake. This also leads to the moral arbiter becoming unchecked as they escalate things towards moral absolutism, leading to anything being justified to get to the end goal.

    "The road to hell is paved with good intentions." and this road to cancel culture for the good of society is starting to get painfully toasty.

    With me being dyslexic my self, I would like to say Linus and Luke having normal social banter is not offensive to me one bit.

    However, I find attempting to push for rules on how society should treat each group for the sake of "feels" an insult to my individual agency. It violates the very point of what the "good intentions" are meant to be, That being: treat all people fairly, and equally, no matter their traits.

    People get offended over things too fast. So one has dyslexia. It's not like they chose to have it and if someone jokes about it, so what? It's something that's out of someone's control and shouldn't be offended over it no mater what. Be offended or ashamed of things in life that you have control over and you decided to fuck them up and people laugh at you for it or joke about you for it. If it's some sort of condition that's out of your control, NEVER be ashamed of it or feel bad about it. It's no different than shaming or laughing at people for their sexuality, skin color, their height and stuff like that. It's not something you decided for, it's how you were born and you just live with that.

    Just gonna point out the one thing that genuinely offends me is when I see others try to be offended for me.
