Offended
Political Correctness, Stephen Fry, The Left
“It’s now very common to hear people say, ‘I’m rather offended by that.’ As if that gives them certain rights. It’s actually nothing more… than a whine. ‘I find that offensive.’ It has no meaning; it has no purpose; it has no reason to be respected as a phrase. ‘I am offended by that.’ Well, so fucking what.“
– Stephen Fry, [I saw hate in a graveyard – Stephen Fry, The Guardian, 5 June 2005]â€
