TL;DR:

   - disagreeing and being offended aren't on the same level
   - getting offended is a good thing, it shows you care deeply about an issue, you should do it more
   - behaving like and ass***e because you're offended is not ok

For what it's worth, I'd interpret is as "disagreeing and being offended aren't the same" not that they aren't on the same level. I point that out, because I think that viewing them as on different levels could make the issue worse. It could basically mean that if someone wants their offense to be taken seriously, then they need to convince people that it's actually a disagreement.
