Any statement/picture/video/etc, no matter how seemingly benign, will offend someone, somewhere.
The trick is to filter out that basal level of outrage so we can determine is something is generating real outrage.
Some people aren't so good at this. Which is why you get posts about the horrible outrage this has spawned (as the basis for their later tangent) when in reality they're talking about a handful of people who likely would have been offended if they'd posted giant pictures of flowers or puppies.
