I would like to know the same.
It seems some easily offended people moved in here and are strangling discourse.

I vouched for this, it seems extremely ironic to downvote someone saying people are easily offended round here. I don't think he was trolling or trying to rile anyone up and it should be possible to discuss such things without burying people.
Calling people easily offended and saying they’re strangling discourse is not an effective way of starting a conversation. I’m very curious what your threshold for baiting is given there’s absolutely no substance to the GP’s post.
Taking offense is a tactic to overpower the opponent with ostensible moral superiority while offering nothing to confront them but to silence them.
This is of course, assuming good intent and respectful (but contrarian) viewpoints.

That's like your spouse telling you "you never do things right in this house". How does that work to a constructive discussion?
