Even if that's true on the macro scale its still incredibly useful to keep in mind the impact your language has on the mind of the person you are communicating with. If my goal is to get the person I am communicating with to do a thing, most of the time idgaf about whether or not I contributing to them becoming a snowflake. It does not matter why the persona you are talking to is getting offended. Offending people is counter-productive, so it should be avoided if you can avoid it.
