You are being actively obtuse if someone informs you "lots of people are offended by this" and you just plug your ears and go "you don't speak for them"
It's common knowledge. If you refuse to go along with it, you are just bring an asshole abd you will struggle to form meaningful relationships.
People who refuse to just put in the 1% of effort needed to not be offensive are destined to lead a hollow existence, constantly plagued either short term relationships that keep ending early as people get to know who they are and then peace out, or, are also an asshole and they get to "enjoy" each other's company.
You aren't arguing in good faith here. If someone tells you something is offensive, it's nearly zero effort to just go "oh sorry" and just move on.
Only assholes sit and try and debate and argue about how they should be allowed to be an asshole.
You are allowed to be an asshole, it's not illegal, but it doesn't stop it from being asshole behavior.
