We're living in a snowflake society. Everyone gets offended by everything and nothing.

Alternatively: people have finally said enough to having their ability to use the internet gated on their willingness to accept abuse from other users.

Have you seen the response individuals get to calling out bullshit behavior? It takes guts to willingly put your name on any action to reduce the spread of abusive content. The people who do become victims of doxxing, swatting, unending abuse on all social media, including being sent porn, torture imagery, death threats, child pornography.

Then someone say that they're the snowflake? They're not the babies having a tantrum over not being able to call people intentionally abusive names.
