One thing that bugs me about the commentary here is that absolutely everything comes down to whether someone is mean or nice. It doesn't matter what they're saying, it's the TONE. Like we could all die fighting over the last gallon of gas in some burnt out hell world and it would be fine as long as everyone was nice to each other. It's like there is no past, there is no future, there is only the every present now and everybody's feelings and that's the only thing that exists.

"Tone" is a part of what one says. It's not meaningless. It carries a message as well.

Except tone is a function of the observer. It's purely subjective and thus one can make absolutely anything offensive by complaining about the tone.

Watch: I don't like the tone of your comment. Now prove to me that you're not saying something in a tone that's not offensive to me. You can't. My feelings are authoritative "lived experience."
