People are finding things more and more offensive. Getting offended is totally normal and is when people say something or do something that makes you angry. These people who are getting offended at most things are called “The snow flake generation or these social justice warrior”. These people are even going so far as to campaign for people that may have never ask for their help or opinion. These social justice warrior can get offended at almost everything even if the subject is barely offensive

To start of I want to say that I fully support social justice, but I don’t support the act of taking social justice too far to the point of ruining someone’s life. In this day and age something that is barely offensive can become the worst thing someone have ever heard of I think the reason is just because they think they should be offended or just following how other people would think. So these people would proceed to attack them on social media. This could even destroy someones career. Most things that are offensive enough to make it to the news from my opinion and with context, a lot of them are just jokes and never meant to be taken seriously, because they are just making jokes something to be laughed at if you get offended by a joke I think you shouldn’t be make a big deal about it. To the point of destroying someones career

People may think this is a good thing and I agree but not completely. From my perspective it has both good and bad effects to modern day society, such as it helps people through hard time such as internet bullies or oppressed group of people, but for some it does the complete opposite, like comedians who got in trouble because their jokes are considered offensive are now making their jokes as offensive as possible. But to the other group of people who are scared to voice their opinion to the internet because they could get attacked on the internet. So this social justice thing may help someone it has a great disadvantage which is it takes away people’s freedom of speech.

One of the many overly offended happening. Is when a Scottish youtuber by the name of Mark Meechan made a video training his dog to do the Nazi salute when it hears the word gas the Jews because his girlfriend thinks everything the dog does is cute. Even though he only made a joke, though the joke could be considered. He still went to court he was charged with hate crime and fined for 800£. The jury said what mark did wasn’t just a joke but actually a Nazi propaganda, but what they’re doing is taking away mark’s freedom of speech which is one of the many things the Nazi did. Although this was not exactly a tasteful joke, I think going to court and getting charged with hate crime is too extreme of a punishment for this scenario. something good did come out from this. Which is the massive support Mark got and that raised awareness of overly offended people.

I don’t think it’s wrong for people to get offended it’s a perfectly normal reaction when someone says something that doesn’t please you, but I think it’s wrong when you take your feeling of getting offended too far. From my perspective I think that whatever anyone says someone out there will find it offensive for example I find people that drink instant ice tea slightly offensive but that doesn’t make it okay to ruin someones life.
