@Sethayy the existence of people not offended by something prejudiced always seems to be dragged out as a justification for that prejudice.

If some people being offended isn't reason enough not to say something, then it stands to reason that some people not being offended isn't a reason why it's okay.

If it is, then there are definitely people who are offended.

@Bebo There's been evidence for a long time that pythagoras was more cult-leader than mathematician, and his cult falsely attributed lots of things to him.
