It's like, for them, being made to say the sky is red, when you an see it's blue. It's a betrayal of what they know to be true and being made to parrot falsehoods is unacceptable.

Why is it ok to offend one and group in the protection of not offending another?

If someone believes a biological man is a man and should be called 'he' then that's as valid as insisting otherwise. No one's rights trump the others in this.

Does that make sense?

Oh it makes sense, I just don’t get why people get so irked by it all to the point they go out of their way to then be offensive.

Examples on this forum with Zelah when people purposely overuse the word ‘she’ several times in every sentence they write about him to be offensive. If you don’t want to write ‘he’, just use Zelah’s name instead.

That wasn’t aimed at On The Right btw, I can’t say I’ve personally noticed him do that.
