Anyone commenting about people being “too sensitive”, please read this. Some people are pretty sensitive. Some do take offense at things that seem innocuous to you. I’d like to try and explain why.

Eh, a bunch of teenagers trivialising the worst ethnic genocide of the 20th Century, which killed 6 million civilians, dispossessed and psychologically devastated millions more, altered the demographics of an entire continent and led directly to the creation of Israel and the shitshow which is today’s Middle East.

That is exactly how it should happen. You did A Thing without thinking about it. Someone told you The Thing was hella offensive and explained why.

Or people could stop throwing stereotypical jokes at members of minority groups without establishing that individual person is cool with it. That would work too.

Every time I see stories like this I just want more education and more context for that education. Kids do a lot of stupid shit but they need education and new experiences outside their privilege to keep them from turning into racist adults (or as now easily identify them: Trump voters)
