1. We are all common people, we need more common sense. So what is common sense: Having a good sense (of humour too) and balanced, sound judgement in practical matters and everyday living.

2. Not everything in life is sexist or racist or transphobic.

3. We are all created the same but we are different too: let’s celebrate our differences.

4. Variety is the spice of life: we do not want to live in a sterile, sanitised and boring world.

5. Human civilization has only truly evolved and advanced through open thinking, yearning for better, failing (think inventions) and accepting criticism.

6. Western civilization has its faults but on balance has done more good than bad: It’s why the West has had the biggest mass migration in recent years.

7. Sensible equality is fine, special treatment is not a privilege that is fair.

8. Modern society has us being offended and upset, consciously or sub-consciously, at everything: this is creating mental health issues.

9. Real comedy that offends without inciting hate is what we yearn for like the days of old. Let’s laugh at ourselves more: better than crying and it is healing.

10. We in the West need a reality check from being so offended:, Half the world is struggling with survival, hunger, disease and shelter.
