Excuse me motherfucker? I'll have you that I'm a stonekin and that expression is very offensive to me. As a nonliving object with no capacity for thought whatsoever, I have never contemplated breaking someone's bones in my life. Check your privilege and stop culturally appropriating us rocks. Im with this guy. Seriously, We have feelings too! We just can't think about them.

Things that no one would complain about before are all of a sudden the worst thing on the planet. You have a right to be offended but hurt feelings don't give people to right to censor another person's artwork, or ruin that person's life etc.

Who are you to tell them that their feelings are not authentic, wrong, or worth taking into account? Its not people being offended that is the problem. Its people demanding others change in order to remedy this "offense". You are free to feel however you want, but don't try to restrict other people's freedoms and pretend that it is in any way justified if your skin is paper thin.

Yeah, I get that that not all celebrate, but please, there's so much sanitation going around that it just strips off the joy of the season.

Well, words are powerful. They hurt more than we think. But it is seriously getting ridiculous when everything is a so-called 'trigger' to someone. You can't even make an innocent mistake online anymore because someone will instantly come at you for being racist/misogynist/fillintheblank or 'OMG TRIGGER WARNING!!!' or some other nonsense.
