I'm mad at my friend for saying I can't get offended for other people.
Why do you feel mad at him?
Because in a small way he's right. Getting offended for someone else doesn't really make much sense.
Actually, I think you're in the right on this one. Getting offended for someone else is a form of speaking out against something you both believe is unjust but doesn't affect you directly. You're supporting their cause and that's a great thing, so keep it up!
My friend is an idiot. I'm mad at myself for not thinking about this before.
Hey, no need to be hard on yourself. We all are growing and learning from eachother.
