I'm not so sure about that. I'm living without offending anyone and trying to not act like a dick with people, and I assure it's working fairly well. I respect everyone's opinions, even if I can argue with them. But there's no need to be a dick to defend yourself. Obviously you can act like whatever you want, you have your rights. But I think people who is polite and don't offend anyone have the advantage in a argument and can defend themselves better. The other option is start a cycle of ad-hominem and offensive arguments which generally don't go anywhere.

 

My point was that I have the right to offend anyone that I desire, even if that means I'm making a fool of myself.

 

Chances are if someone is triggered by my generalizations, they wouldn't fare well in a constructive debate regardless.

 

Well yeah, but just because you have a right to do something doesn't mean you should do it.

On top of that, just because you have a right to do something doesn't mean you're free from being held responsible for your actions. If people think you're being a dick, your going to get called out for it and you only have yourself to blame for it.
