People are too sensitive nowadays, but some people also take things too far with their insults
Did you even listen to what was said? Insults are one thing but alluding to rape and then saying it's not rape if the rapist enjoys it. Is on a whole different level of depravity.
Did you even read what they wrote? "Some people go too far with their insults." What you described is literally going too far.
What was said wasn't an insult. "Your momma...." are jokes, "you suck do bad..." are insults. Tbagging a dead body is an insult.
Implying you are going to rape someone and then saying it's not rape because you would enjoy it isn't a typical "insult".
So yeah i read what they said. It just didn't really apply to the situation.
It may not be a typical insult, but it is still insulting. And if someone says that as an insult, that is going too far.
No it is not. “I’m going to kick you” isn’t an insult, it’s a threat. Someone could try to make the case that it’s a “joke” but it isn’t an insult.
