This viewpoint is right and also wrong. It's very true that parts of the world are not informed about things like "trigger warnings" and the latest fights in social justice. And it is ridiculous to assume the average person will know about those things. However, the world is constantly changing and it's just as absurd to assume that things will stay the same forever.

For instance, the common populace's view on gay marriage has changed throughout the decades. More and more people are becoming aware and accepting of gay marriage because of positive exposure to the LGBT community. Likewise, a hundred years ago women didn't have the right to vote or get abortions. However, as more decades go by, these laws are changing and women are getting more equal rights. The Equal Rights Amendment was reintroduced to be voted on as well. There are children's books being put out there that teach little kids morals about accepting everyone for who they are. As more of this content gets produced for newer generations about the value of accepting others, the more our world is going to keep changing.

Likewise, it's just as naive to think every workplace or setting is just going to accept someone acting obnoxious and prejudiced. There are plenty of organizations out there that enforce equal treatment, and you can even get fired for making a joke that might be offensive to someone else in certain places.

Part of growing up is learning to pick your battles. It's not about giving up completely because "that's just how the world is". That's the mind of a moody teenager, not an adult. Being a grown up means knowing what causes need attention and need to be debated as well as what needs to be let go and forgotten about. Like will scolding grampa about "being gypped" be worth it at Thanksgiving? Probably not. But is supporting racial and ethnic diversity in the workforce something we should all strive for? I would hope so.
