    So that those who excel at offensiveness must struggle harder?

Yes.

    If I don't tell my neighbor kid to stop throwing rocks at my windows, eventually he'll get bored, right?

Whose glass was broken because some people started throwing up 'OK' ?

If someone is directly harmed. If violent action is taken, that's one matter.

If a group of shitty middle schoolers suddenly decided that a given phrase or common part of speech actually means 'dicks' that does not mean that word changes meaning, unless everyone else acknowledges it and changes the way they behave because of it.

Call them idiots and move on.
