This. The number of times I read an article talking about how some people are outraged by X or Y, only to click the article and see nothing more than two or three tweets quoted from people who have a hundred or so followers.I maintain that the concept of offence and being offended gets spoken about 95% of the time by people who think everyone goes on about being offended too much. Usually because their news-stream knows it's an easy outrage-click to post "Millenials OFFENDED by SOCKS?!!!!" or something, when all they've done is find a tweet about something completely unrelated.
