We cannot live in societies where we are afraid of offending people for the dumbest of reasons.
While this is true, you have to realize that this is on the list of the least concerning things that leftist tyranny would bring.
But taking your example, the slippery slope looks like:
1. Being afraid to offend someone
2. Being punished for offending someone
3. Being imprisoned for offending someone
4. Being executed for offending someone
We haven't quite gotten to normalizing #3 and #4 yet, but if the left had their way, we would get there in short order.
The best way to keep evil men from wielding great power is to not create great power in the first place.
