Are there any of your own beliefs which you don't express because they might be considered offensive in the future?

Are there any of your own beliefs which you don't express because they might be considered offensive in the future?
- tayo42 5y agoI don't think i hold offensive beliefs (controversial maybe, as we see here, but no ones getting their feelings hurt), if I did and learned about I'd change them. It seems easy to not be offensive though, what kind of beliefs are people having trouble with?
- SpicyLemonZest 5y agoThere are some issues where it seems impossible to hold a non-offensive belief. You can't support abortion or oppose abortion or claim abortion is unimportant without genuinely hurting a lot of people's feelings. (I wouldn't deny that you can avoid being offensive by simply avoiding all controversial issues, and in some contexts that's a perfectly reasonable approach.)
