People are offended by AA because it is based on sexism and racism. This does not mean it doesnt help some people. It absolutely does. I believe a lot of people recognize this dual nature on some level, but they are uncomfortable because it means they have to accept the fact that sometimes a thing can not only be a benefit but also violate their principles. In other words, racism is super bad and nobody should be racist, but Im going to ignore this instance of practiced racism by calling it something else, because Im getting something out of it.
Its amazing how impossible empathy is for some people. Shit like this is so frustrating I usually don't even bother with it anymore but God damn its so prevalent.
