> And people consider parts of what he said bigoted.

Is it enough for some people to consider it that?

Consider gay marriage. Each side thinks the other is being bigoted towards some group. Do we just take people's words for it?

Looking at the response in this friend it is worringly normal to let you ever get most easily offended define what is reasonable.

This only leads to people getting increasingly sensitive over increasingly minor things and it's a vicious circle.

So how do we break it? How do we re-establish open discourse?

I agree. I'm just stating a possible justification for dismissal.
