This is clearly a sly reference to an exclusionary in-joke, which makes it an in-joke itself, and thus also exclusionary.

Needless to say, I'm still offended. And I think we can all agree that no one should ever be offended.

I'm offended that you're offended. And I think we can all agree that no one should ever be offended.

Hint: this path or yours? It doesn't work. Feeling offended and asking others not to offend you has to be reasonable within society's moral values. They've changed, obviously. But there is a large group of conservatives (as in: the type who wants traditional values) who loathe that change. The group is significant enough that they can push back changes like these. Case in point: Trump got elected and ensured SCOTUS is now 6-3 conservative-progressive.

I am offended you're offended they're offended. And I believe the best defense against trolling is direct offense

Hint: this little old glory jig of yours? You know why you're offended? Because you have no principles or values worth fighting for. But you want to fight for something. So you fight for an inglorious past. And you can't think of a better way than to skirmish with sjws at random.

We see you, and you are transparent to us. If you were above the struggle, you would say nothing. Yet you want to fight. You NEED to fight. We all do. And yet you have nothing worthwhile to fight for. So you fight us.

The problem with your approach is that your way of thinking will die, since it produces nothing new or worthwhile. To the degree that your views get presidence, there will be misery and gnashing of teeth, stagnation, and eventual failure of the empire built on your non-principles. But the cause of true justice will remain living, until victory.

LLM gibberish.

[barfbagginus]

False. The best LLMs speak with more empathy than I do

If I was using an LLM, I wouldn't be beefing with you. I'd find some way to engage you while respecting your point of view.

Nope. I'm definitely a full 100% grade A human a*hole
