I think people are getting, maybe, too sensitive?

Ok this is absolutely an honest question. Are you referring to the people who think those add is a good thing or the people who don’t think it’s a good thing?

They said people are getting too sensitive. Implying people weren't too sensitive before.

Since hugs from grandparents didn't need consent before, it stands to reason they're referring to the people who think this ad is a good thing.

You don’t think people getting their panties in a twist about an ad are being a little sensitive?

Are their panties in a twist? Asking if people are getting "maybe, too sensitive" seems a relevant and pertinent question.

If the question offends you, then I guess the answer's right there.

I wasn’t offended at all. I wasn’t disparaging the question either. I was literally asking which party they were directing their “too sensitive” comment towards. Because depending who you ask, everyone is a snowflake.

Those who say "if that offends you" when no one around then was showing any sign of offense, are in fact, too sensitive.
