Yes, but it's best to keep silent about the "foolish" and go with "different" or "nuanced" POV, I appreciate what you have to say. Does that sound better?

Do you think our ability to be concise and communicate with STRONG messages has been diluted simply to offend less people?

Yes. Have you heard of politics, religion, minority issues, public welfare, healthcare reform, equal rights, affirmative action, need I go on?
Why should I be afraid of offending someone? Will it kill them?

That's true. It won't kill them and we are supposed to have "freedom of speech"...Right?
Do you believe in true freedom of speech?

Can freedom of speech be anything but true?
Do you think most people are brave or strong enough to speak freely?

Freedom of speech definitely does NOT imply Truth~! It simply implies the right that each individual has to express their opinion. It has nothing to do with truth. Who defines truth?
"Most people," no. Some people, yes. However, does speaking freely have any relevance/relationship to saying what needs to be said?
Could an honest answer be anything but NO!

No~! I don't believe it could be anything else. Do you know you hit the nail on the head?
Now, let's lighten up these questions.
What kind of ice cream did you decide on?

Don't you know my favorite is mocha almond fudge?

If you don't know anything, what's with that knowing smile?
Is there anything you can't learn from a smile?

Would you not like it (and you) to be turned upside down?

Aren't you familiar with the phrase "turn a frown upside down?"
The confusing part was the "(and you)" part, which meant what?
isn't that suggesting putting a person to stand on their head?
A rather ignoble and awkward position to be put in, I imagine.
