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

>>colord+(OP)
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."

>>narrat+Ne
It's no different from the words themselves. Sometimes tone is vague and other times it's direct and obvious.
