The interesting thing is that in my off-list chats with the "in group" I was told that the harm is to segments of society by people who these "in group" members clearly were not part of. For example, there was a reference made by a white cis male to harm caused by statements made in the TERF wars.
So I did not use the words "professionally wounded" or "snowflakes" but I have come up with another term: offense-by-proxy.
Isn't it possible that the people who might be offended or turned off by something aren't around to give you feedback, specifically b/c they were offended or turned off by those things?
Thanks, Chris. |
