I think there's plenty of reason to be concerned, but certainly not enough to be terrified or overreact with comments like "this comment is offensive".

  I don't think that expressing my opinion is an overreaction. It's offensive to minimize what happened on January 6th. That's what you do when you mock the notion that the president incited violence.

    And I am offended when a few loud voices maximize it. It is called making a mountain out of a mole hill and the media did well here to convince so many to not give too much thought about giving up their rights again. Very similar to 9/11 except less casualties thankfully. Just an interesting observation of how much control screens can exert then vs now. More are connected with constant access. We need better screen diets.

    "It's offensive" is not actually an argument. There never was a societal consensus that nobody should be allowed to say things that somebody could consider offensive. That's just what some people want, as a means to control other people.
