The American left seems to be very focused on making sure nobody will ever need to feel even the slightest bit offended or pressured. Best intentions, I'm sure, but I don't think that's an achievable or even a desirable goal. A healthy society requires a certain amount of peaceful friction.

Europe seems to be following America's lead (as we always do/did), but it hasn't reached the same extremes and probably won't, imho.
