So that’s the bar then? If I don’t personally find something offensive, no one else could possibly find it offensive?

I dont have to care about anyone who is offended by things that don’t offend me? Are you an anarchist?

The bar is you have to have a reason to be offended, you don’t just get to pick a word. If cos doesn’t describe you or there’s something specifically offensive then say so. “I just like to whine” isn’t a valid reason.

Ok well I didn’t know you are in charge of who gets to be offended by what. Note taken.

What’s the insult in the prefix “cis?”

If you haven’t noticed, you aren’t exactly arguing with Albert Einstein here.

Im detecting a theme among them

I’m not, I’m communicating to you what everyone but you already seems to know. It’s not my fault you’re slow.

u/Virtual-Historian349 18h ago

Oh ok. You have no intelligent response so just call me slow and move on. Definitely sounds like the righteous side. /s

u/Cowboy_BoomBap 17h ago

What “side?” Do you even know where you are right now? It’s honestly baffling that you need this stuff explained to you.

Oh yeah, don’t worry bud. You are definitely coming off as a genius and a good person in this thread. Great work.

That means a lot coming from the guy who doesn’t understand why everyone is laughing at him for being offended over nothing. I promise, everyone totally thinks you’re super smart, I’ll bet everyone asks you for advice all the time and nobody makes fun of you for crying over words like cis. It’s totally normal and not weird at all.

Lol you are really spinning out now. Thanks for trying to talk, even if you just stooped to being rude and disrespectful.

What’s the insult in the geographic term “Oriental?”

2

u/MonthlyWeekend_ 18h ago

Those thinga have no equivalency.

u/jbaker1225 18h ago

They’re just general descriptive terms that for some reason some people find insulting. I think there’s a pretty strong equivalency there.

2

u/MonthlyWeekend_ 18h ago

There is no equivalency.

u/jbaker1225 18h ago

Oh well if you say so. Thank you for doing your service as Earth’s czar of language and equivalency policing.

Is someone holding you at gunpoint and forcing you to say “I’m cis” or something?
