Reminds me of this, and also the hilarious+sad long and tedious boilerplate “we don’t intend to offend anybody” preamble to some Bollywood movies (eg padmaavat)

still thinking about when some guy was offended that I make and use blurry images of gods still wondering what is offensive about a blurry image, and just how blurry an image has to get before it becomes offensive

Many are seriously and literally religious enough that outrage is real. Like they get PTSD if gods are disrespected. I pull my punches out of kindness too, not just fear. Like you can be scared of a tiger and also think it’s mean to torture one. In the US it’s mostly pretense.
