I think things like this are a type of resource exhaustion attack on society. No one can be aware of all things potentially offensive to someone else. Its the hyperaware judges excluding mens rea from the equation before deciding guilt. What is the harm done to someone who might find this offensive? Why spend your time lifting the veil and shaming those around you who have no intention of harming anyone with their language? If they happen to offend a party some day, I am sure they will adjust their vocabulary accordingly. Why the haste to preempt this rare event?
